On June 6, 2014, we visited several poor families at Karangasem Regency. First, we went to the hause of I Ketut Kuat at Br. Bau Kaler, Nawa Kerti village to deliver basic needs assistance package from BCC’s donor, Ibu Lina Angkasa. Unfortunately, he had passed away.
Then we went to Br. Kebon, Kerta Mandala Village, Abang Regency. We met the head of Banjar Dinas Kebon; Bapak Ketut Parwata and were accompanied to visit 4 toddlers suffering from malnutrition. They are:
- Nyoman Darmayasa (Male)
Age: 6 years 3 months

Condition: unirary tract disfunction, he could sit but couldn’t walk – should be helped to walk, couldn’t speak clearly.
Father: I Nyoman Dapet
Mpther: Ni Nyoman Kaler

- Putu Arin Triasmita (Female) age: 6 years and her brother
Nyoman Jioti Purika (Male) age: 1 year, weight: 7,6 kg

Next, we visited the family of Nengah Kerti who lived with his paralyzed wife and two mentally-retarded children. They lived on the hill of Tiyingtali village – Abang. Due to their poor life, we created a specific profile for this family, here.

@Marja de Jong. Thanks so much for your help and feedback Ibu Maria, you’re very kind. Thank you.
Yesterday Wayan Tirta and I visited the children in Kerta Mandala.
Arik is healthy now and she is in class 3 SD.
Her little brother is also ok.
Gede Suartika is healthy now, no problems anymore.
Nyoman Darmayasa has a serious mental handicap, he can walk, not talk. But he is healthy.
We just gave the family 400.000 to buy pampers for him.
The other families we gave 400.000 to buy milk for the children. But they do not really need much help anymore.
