MEDAN - Medan Mayor Bobby Nasution plans to bring a 7-month-old baby named Aiyla Adisty Hidayah who suffers from Biliary Atresia to Jakarta.

Based on the information Bobby Nasution received from the doctor, the illness that the poor baby was suffering from started with bile. However, because of his family's treatment for a long time bringing him to the hospital, his disease has progressed to liver function.

"Because of that, yesterday's liver function was the only way yesterday was a transplant. This is indeed in Medan, in North Sumatra, the Adam Malik (RS) has not been able to carry out that," said Bobby Nasution, Friday, October 8.

Therefore, Bobby Nasution discussed with his family regarding the handling.

"What is the solution, we leave it back to the family," he said.

In addition, President Jokowi's son-in-law has also anticipated the possible treatments that will be given to the poor baby.

"We have been informed about the condition of our children, what about transplants, the treatments we can do up to this day," continued Bobby Nasution.

He emphasized that he would fully support whatever decision the baby's parents made, Aiyla Adisty Hidayah.

"In the future, while waiting for the parents' decision to make A, B, or C decisions, we will continue to support them," said Bobby Nasution.

However, if the baby is referred to a hospital in Jakarta, Bobby Nasution cannot confirm the source of the cost. Currently, the poor baby is included in the unregistered category of Medan City Government.

"Until today, we use the Medan City unregister. Of course, later when the family makes a decision, we will discuss it again," said Bobby.
