Makati
Princess was diagnosed with a rare sarcoma in July. The oncology team at Makati Cancer Centre has planned 6 rounds of treatment, starting in October. She will be away from work for about 8 weeks. Princess is 57, worked as a cleaner at a hospital until July, and has always been the one who looks after everyone else. Now it's our turn to look after her. Treatment is covered only in part. Medication that isn't on the approved list, trips to Makati Cancer Centre 2 times a week, and the income the family has lost add up quickly. We've already sold what we could and have begun borrowing for groceries. Every kindness from you takes weight off her shoulders. Funds will be used only for treatment, medication, transport to appointments and essential living costs during treatment. Where the $650 goes: โ€ข Transport to Makati Cancer Centre: $200 โ€ข Scans and lab work: $120 โ€ข Household costs while unable to work: $330 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Mercy

      how is Princess doing now?

      • Hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. Take care.
