Treatment plan
22 February 2016Mother Lily and Realyn has met up with the Medical doctor today at Wellington Hospital to discuss treatment plan for her Stomach Cancer. She was advised to have surgery and chemotherapy. However, timing is complicated as she is still recuperating from her recent heart attack last New Year's eve. If she will have the surgery and treatment done in New Zealand, they were advised that the cost will be about quarter of a million Dollars (NZ$250,000) because she is on a Visitor's Visa. The travel insurance will only cover up to $10,000 for her cancer treatment.
The only option they have is for her to travel back to her home country, Philippines, so she could be with her spouse and other children. Realyn and her young family will need to accompany her. We are hoping and praying that Mother Lily's haemoglobin count will stay at the safe level to travel. She cannot eat solid food because of the cancer in her stomach which is making passage for food very small. Her weight has now gone down to 31.8 kgs.
Please continue to pray for Lily Guerra's healing. May she receive the treatment necessary for her cancer recovery in the Philippines.
Thank you for your support and generosity!
