#UPFUNDME Update: 2 Grandpa is a fighter- Our fight against his severe emphysema (chronic obstructive pulmonary disease/COPD )
Grandfather are the ones who has silver hair with a gold heart. - Unknown
This is the best description of a grandfather that I have. He is a charmer, a loving and a very supportive one. His love for us; his grandchildren are unconditional. I can still remember when we were young whenever we visit them in Pampanga, he loves to prepare and cook our favorite foods for us. He also loves to tell jokes and play cards with us.
My lolo is a type of a person who seem to be doing everything that he can, he loves to do whatever he wants like cooking, biking, gardening and doing some chores at home.
Although he is already 76 years old, he still loves to do the things he used to do, because according to him, if he did not do things, he will feel weak and always tired so we let him do whatever he wanted.
Not until this year, he's emphysema worsen and became severe which leads to frequent shortness and difficulties of his breathing, he can hardly sleep , eat and move now and was confined two times this year, this June is the recent one.
My first #upfundme post 7 days ago was very overwhelming, the support, prayers and love for our Lolo are very much appreciated. He is indeed a fighter, because as of now, he can be able to eat and sleep but still can't be able to move for long because of his sensitive condition.
I would like to mention these fellow steemians who helped us:
As of today, I have gathered 15.058 STEEM, 7.893 SB - from the post-payout major upvoters @surpassinggoogle,@canadian-coconut, @curie & @ausbitbank

Thank you also for the support of @derangedvisions, @cloh76.witness, @c-squared, @steemph.uae family esp. ate @arrliinn and @steemitachievers family esp. to sir @long888.
This is a big help for us and we are really grateful to everyone who supported and continuously supporting us, may God continue to bless you all.
We still don't know until when he will recover. All we know is that, he is fighting and we will never give up on him also.
With this, we are humbly asking for your continuous prayers and support for him.
As of June 23,2018 the total expenses : 100, 362. 93.00 PHP (1,874USD) for the oxygen, maintenance and his hospital needs.
Target Goal: We're not expecting to get the full amount, a little support will be really appreciated.
We are continuously praying to God to help him recover as soon as possible because seeing him suffer like this is very hard for us. He is fighting and so we are, We really love him and we will do the best that we can to give everything he needs for his medication.
Thank you very much!
May God bless us all!
