Please help my Mama on her medical expenses

Auckland

Hi everyone. My Mama has been rushed to the hospital 3 days ago due to a cardiogenic shock( heart attack) and found out also to have pneumonia. She was taken by an ambulance since she cannot breathe properly anymore. I’m asking for your prayers for her and for all of us in the family.

The doctor said, she needs to undergo Angiogram to see how bad the blockage to her heart is. After that, either she’ll undergo Angioplasty or Bypass surgery. My mama doesn’t want to go through with that anymore due to fear and she said she’s already old and mainly because we can’t afford it also. But for me, I am just scared.

The cost of hospitalisation in the Philippines is adding to our stresses right now since they don’t have any insurance at all. Even her Philhealth is under my sister’s but since she also has her family under her, my Mama only has 10 days coverage in it and after that we will have to pay everything in full. ICU room alone costs 30k/night and we don’t know when she can come out of it since she’s in a very unstable condition.

I haven’t seen my Mama since 2018 as we haven’t got the chance to go home due to many circumstances. My siblings and I are doing the best that we can to make her fight and be alive and well. I still want to see my Mama alive!

We are knocking on your doors to get some help for her medical expenses. If you have spare money even just $1 I will forever be grateful and that will help us in this very challenging time that we have right now. Thank you very much.

Thank you so much from the bottom of my heart  16 March 2024

Hi All,

It’s been 6 months since Mama was admitted to ICU due to a heart attack. I just wanted to let you know that she’s a fighter and has now recovered from that incident. She’s been on therapy for 12 weeks after she was discharged and it has helped her a lot until today. She can walk but not her usual speed of course but we are grateful. In all these, I can only think of God’s favour and mercy upon her. Please continue to pray for her that she will regain strength each day. I thank the Lord for everything that He has done up to this day. And thank you to all of you who were touched by God for extending your help to us when we needed it the most. You are all a blessing and I know the Lord will bless you all abundantly. 🙏🏻❤️❤️🙏🏻

Here’s a pic of Mama from yesterday while we’re having dinner. We will be going back to NZ tomorrow but I know we will see each other again soon. ❤️🙏🏻
