UPFUNDME: Help Me with the MEDICAL EXPENSES of My Son

in #upfundme6 years ago

I NEED HELP!

IMG_20180804_121954.jpg

It is already the third day that my son was hospitalized. As a mother, it kills me just seeing him suffer. But we are thankful that we brought him to the hospital as there was a really big improvement with his condition.

He had an IMPETIGO.

Impetigo is a common and highly contagious skin infection that mainly affects infants and children. It usually appears as red sores on the face, especially around a child's nose and mouth, and on hands and feet. The sores burst and develop honey-colored crusts. You're exposed to the bacteria that cause impetigo when you come into contact with the sores of someone who's infected or with items they've touched — such as clothing, bed linen, towels and even toys.

Our top priority is to make our son well, safe and healthy. So, even if we don't have enough savings to cover the medical expenses, we really decided to let my son be admitted to the hospital as requested by his pediatrician. Our savings were just enough to be used for our everyday expenses such as food for the whole time we are here in the city.

Now, our problem would be how we are going to pay the hospital expenses of my son for his stay here. I am expecting that he will be discharged 2-3 days from now. But I am really bothered as to where I am going to get the money that we we are supposed to pay for the hospital. My salary is still on the 3rd-last week of the month.

That is the reason why I am humbly knocking on your generous hearts to please lend me your helping hands. This is the first time that I actually ask help here for personal reason. As much as possible, I don't want to do this but I really don't have a choice.

The last time my other son was hospitalized here, we have paid more or less P 27,000 for one week stay.

Target Goal: at least 300 USD
Target Date: August 8, 2018

I really need help as I know our situation calls for a lot of money. We don't even have other health insurance to cover everything.

Thank you so much to those who would be willing to help. I will greatly appreciate your efforts.

Lovelots,

Good luck, sis. I know help is on its way.

do you have philhealth? I got philhealth because I am not working . Hope he gets better soon

yes I have philhealth but I don't know if the condition of my son is covered since philhealth benefits has only limited packages for certain diseases..

you could check it up I heard they have added more illness in the packages

Speedy recovery for your son, Ma'am @yanzel4lyf.
