Baby Potchi is just 5 months old but has undergone 5 operations already. He is a fighter - he just needs our help to carry on...

Baby Potchi is now confined in ICU in the Philippines.Right after birth, he was diagnosed with Hydrocephalus and Spina Bifida. Baby Potchi has water on his brain due to build-up of too much cerebrospinal fluid. If untreated, it is usually fatal. The treatment usually involves surgery to insert a shunt.
He now has Pneumonia too due to severe water pressure on his head and this pressure affects his lungs which restricts him from breathing properly. And because of this, he cannot undergo another SHUNT OPERATION which is a needed operation to lessen the water in his head.
We are knocking into your hearts to help Baby Potchi in this battle. The family is in dire need of financial help so that medical assistance and the operations will continue. When Potchi recovers from Pneumonia, he could undergo another shunt operation. (Which hopefully will be his last)
Small or large amount of financial assistance is very much appreciated. Prayers are also needed; that God may give us and, most especially, Potchi the strength and guidance to overcome this obstacle...
Baby Potchi is our youngest cousin from our home country, Philippines. We have not met him yet, but, with your help, we are hoping we would be given a chance.
