Doctor Suriadi Umar, Sp. A at Ibnu Sina Hospital, revealed that Sari’s delayed diagnosis could have also contributed to further developmental delays.
“Because of Sari’s hormonal abnormalities, it is possible it affected the motor gland and can make her slower,” Dr. Umar said.
“Because we didn’t see Sari until she was a teenager, the muscles didn’t respond quickly. If we had seen her at the age of six months we could have immediately consulted the parents on Sari’s condition.
“God willing, now we know the core disease, we will see sari slowly move through treatment and physiotherapy.”
Sari now undergoes physiotherapy once a week and her mother nurses the hopes that her daughter will be able to work and lead a full life.
