I am Jennifer, a mother of a Crohn's patient, Virgil Jerard. He has been diagnosed at the age of 14 and been on a maintainance medication up to the present. He is now 24 years old. His Crohn's got worsen and has a lot of complications which prompted us to bring him to a more sophisticated facility where a government hospital in the Philippines doesn't have. He's been through a lot of medical procedures and expensive medications that our family resources could no longer afford. As a mother, I want my son to live and I will do everything for him. I am appealing to your kind hearts to help us in our financial needs for the cost of medical expenses in Philippine private hospitals are not free. They won't perform any necessary procedure without downpayment and we purchase medicines out of our pockets which are very expensive. It's been a month now since he is admitted in the ICU, conscious but no regard to his environment for his brain was affected due to blood clots and infection.
