Hi, my name is Lany, and I really appreciate you taking the time to read my story. My father, Tatay Ben, was diagnosed with thyroid cancer in 2017. Since then, he has been battling with the big C and all the complications it brought to his overall well-being. He has undergone multiple surgeries, i.e., removal of his thyroid, removal of tumors that metastasized to his lungs and shoulders, and reconstruction of his shoulder bone by implanting a metal plate.

Right now, Tatay Ben is admitted in the ICU in the Philippines due to pneumonia, and he is intubated with a ventilator to support his lungs.

My family humbly asks for your help to support my Tatay’s medical needs. Any donation you are willing to give will be greatly appreciated. Our running bill in the ICU as of today is around $10K, which doesn’t include the latest procedure he has undergone to fix the dislocated metal implant in his shoulder.

We understand everyone’s situation, and if you are unable to help financially at this time, sharing this fundraising to your friends, family, and connections would also mean the world to us. Thank you so much for your help.
