My name is Roma. I have been a disciple for 12 years and am part of ICOC Tacloban. I work in a private clinic as a Radiologic Technologist. My husband, Dharel, has also been a disciple for five years. He recently got a new job and is currently under a probationary period. We have been married for almost two years. Shortly after we got married, I took on the responsibility of caring for my mother, Eden, who is 62 years old. She was recently diagnosed with Invasive Papillary Carcinoma (Stage 4 breast cancer in her right breast) with liver and lung metastasis. Since then, she has been in and out of hospitals due to severe and excessive bleeding caused by the large mass on her right breast.
My mother requires daily maintenance medication that costs $100 per month, in addition to frequent doctor’s appointments and medical supplies for cleaning her wounds. These expenses have exhausted our resources and savings. She needs to undergo eight cycles of chemotherapy, with the first session costing $2,000 and each subsequent session costing $1,500. Given the overwhelming expenses, my husband and I are humbly reaching out to your generous hearts for help with my mother’s treatment. Any support you can provide will make a significant difference in our situation. It will give my mother a chance to get better and, hopefully, to recover fully. We will be forever grateful for your kindness and support.
