My name is Craig Alder. I live in Utah, and I have a fiance in the Philippines, named Rose, and she has two children, Kyle and Xyrelle (ages 15 and 13). Rose is dealing with some serious health problems, including heart arrythmia and Tuberculosis, and her daughter also has active TB. They do not have any health insurance, and I have been paying for all their medical bills. They have Drug Resistant TB (DRTB), and because Rose and her daughter each must take four different antibiotics every day, the medicines are extremely expensive, which means that the government has paid only a very small portion. Also, because it is DRTB, it is taking much longer than usual to cure them.

I have been unemployed for the past four months, and, because of my own debts, I am out of money and am three months behind on my credit cards and unsecured personal loans.

Rose and her two children are wonderful people, and if it were not for my help, they would have died of their illnesses. Kyle also had TB and is now cured.

I am starting a new job on July 2nd and will not see income from that until the middle of July, so I need to raise an additional $800 by Wednesday, July 2nd to cover Xyrelle's TB medicines and other Medical expenses for Rose's heart condition.
