Help Salmo Live a Normal Life
Our Brave Little Warrior from Zamboanga Sibugay

Meet Salmo (Psalm) — our courageous little cousin from Ipil, Zamboanga Sibugay, Philippines. From the moment he was born, Salmo has been fighting tremendous odds with unwavering strength and a bright smile.

He was born with:
  • Imperforate anus
  • Down syndrome
  • Hypothyroidism
  • Congenital heart disease (PDA)

Despite all these challenges, Salmo has already undergone two major surgeries and is now preparing for the third and final step:

✨ Colostomy Takedown/Closure Surgery ✨
This surgery will reconnect his colon and allow him to pass waste naturally — a life-changing moment for Salmo and our entire family.

Medical Journey So Far:
At just 2 days old, Salmo had a life-saving ileostomy at Zamboanga Doctors Hospital. He’s been bravely living with a colostomy bag ever since. On March 3, 2025, he underwent a successful PSARP surgery in Cebu City.
He's now undergoing dilation therapy — a crucial step in preparing for his final surgery.

Our Goal: PHP 250,000 (Approx. $4,500 USD)
This amount will cover:
  • The colostomy takedown/closure surgery
  • Hospital stay
  • Medical supplies and post-operative care

Our family has exhausted all savings and taken out loans for his previous operations. We don’t have health insurance, so we’re now reaching out to kind-hearted people around the world for help.

How You Can Help:
  • Donate — any amount, big or small, will bring Salmo closer to a normal life.
  • Share — help us reach more people by sharing Salmo’s story.
  • Pray — your prayers mean the world to us.

With your help, Salmo can finally live free from a colostomy bag and experience the comfort and joy every child deserves.

From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for your kindness, generosity, and support. You’re not just helping with medical costs — you’re giving hope, healing, and a future to a brave little boy.

Let’s come together for Salmo!
