Help for Marion (Child with Esophageal Atresia)

Donation protected
Let me introduce myself to you, my name is Abba T. Buenavista 33 years old and I am from the Philippines. Last May 21, 2012, I gave birth to a child and was born pre-term at 32-33 weeks via cesarean secondary to fetal distress at a hospital in Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental. He was then referred to a hospital in Cebu City (Chong Hua) due to suspected Esophageal Atresia. On the 3rd day of admission at Chong Hua Hospital, an esophagogram was done which revealed presence of esophageal atresia. Our son had thoracotomy. ligation of TEF and insertion of gastorostomy last June 4, 2012. The operation to connect the esophagus and his stomach was unsuccessful since it has a long gap of 3cm. He is still on mechanical ventilator until now, and he needs to have another operation called esophagostomy.

With the baby boy's delicate stage, complications were found and immediate medical attention requiring surgery was strongly recommended by the physician. Financing the medical costs has been the greatest challenge for me and my family has ever encountered given the current situation we are faced with. We are determined to pursue whatever medical procedures required for the baby but our financial situation poses as a hindrance in doing so. At the moment, my son Marion Sid Hendryx Undag is confined in Chong Hua Hospital under the Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

In this connection, I am humbly asking any financial assistance from you to aid us in the pursuance of Marion Sid Hendryx Undag's medical operation(s). Any help will be treated with utmost gratefulness. Should there be a need to contact me, I may be reached through my personal mobile number 639156338845 or my email [email redacted]
