Hi Everyone,

My name is Soki, and many of you already know me. I never imagined that I would one day have to write a message like this and ask for help. But life has a way of humbling us and reminding us that sometimes we cannot fight our battles alone.

Last year, I was diagnosed with Stage IB3 Cervical Cancer. Since that moment, my life has completely changed. I have been in and out of hospitals more times than I can count. What used to be normal days are now filled with treatments, procedures, and recovery.

At first, I kept everything to myself. I was in denial and believed I could overcome this through natural and holistic approaches. I have always taken care of my body. As a fitness enthusiast and someone who advocates mindful eating for PCOS, I believed my body would be strong enough to fight this illness. But the reality turned out to be very different.

The tumor continued to grow, and for months I experienced severe and excessive bleeding. Almost every week, I had to undergo blood transfusions just to survive. In fact, during the months of January and February alone, I received 27 bags of blood.

Each transfusion was a reminder of how serious my condition had become. It has been physically exhausting, emotionally draining, and honestly one of the most difficult and humbling experiences of my life. But through it all, I continue to hold on and pray for the strength to keep fighting.

Eventually, I made the decision to fully commit to Western medical treatment.

So far, I have completed 28 sessions of Radiation Therapy and 5 cycles of Chemotherapy. Each treatment brings pain, exhaustion, and side effects that are difficult to explain. Despite everything, I continue to fight.

I may not always show it, but there are moments when I feel like giving up. But whenever I think about my child and the people who depend on me, I remind myself that I must keep going.

As many of you know, I am a single parent and the breadwinner of my family. There are nights when I quietly ask myself, “What if I can’t make it through this?” But I continue to pray that God will guide me and give me the strength to overcome this battle.

Right now, the next step in my treatment is a procedure called Brachytherapy, which is a critical part of my cancer treatment. Unfortunately, the costs of my previous treatments have already exhausted my savings. I have also fully used my HMO coverage for laboratory tests and hospital admissions after countless hospital visits and stays.

Because of this, I am humbly reaching out for help.

Any amount, big or small, will go directly toward helping me continue my treatment and fight cancer. The Brachytherapy procedure costs approximately ₱200,000, and I have attached the billing protocol for transparency. I am also including my QR codes for BPI, BDO, and GCash for anyone who may wish to extend their support.

Beyond financial help, I am also asking for your prayers. Please pray for my healing and for strength for my body as I continue the rest of my treatments. I truly believe that faith, kindness, and the support of others can carry us through even the hardest moments.

If you are unable to donate, sharing this message would already mean so much to me. Your share may help this reach more people and possibly someone who may be able to help me continue my treatment.

Thank you for taking the time to read my story and for standing with me in this fight. I promise that I will continue to stay strong and keep fighting with everything I have.

With gratitude,

Soki
