Elvano Ibhe Riansyah is only 1 year and 5 months old, but he’s spent more time in hospital than at home.

Born with severe breathing problems, Elvano was rushed to the NICU immediately after birth. Since then, he’s been battling pneumonia, a rare airway disorder called laryngomalacia, delayed development, and a serious milk allergy. He cannot breathe without a portable machine and even with it, his condition remains fragile.

After being misdiagnosed early on, doctors finally confirmed that Elvano needs long-term breathing support, along with specialized formula milk, because he’s still unable to eat solid food. Without constant care, his oxygen levels drop and his body turns blue.

His mother, Sri, had to leave her teaching job to care for him full-time. His father has disappeared and no longer provides support. Now, with no income and rising medical costs, Sri is struggling to keep her son alive.

“It breaks my heart to watch him gasp for air, but I keep going. I just want him to be healthy,” she says.
