Elizabeth's Medical Fund

My name is Paul Duarte.  I live in Scarborough, Ontario, Canada.  My wife is Lucy. Elizabeth's sister. 

Recently, Elizabeth who lives in the Phillippines had a minor stroke which landed her a 3 day stay in the hospital.  After that short stay, she went home only to find out, that her husband had passed away from a heart attack while she was in the hospital. 
Elizabeth with the bereavement, had another stroke; a major one this time.  She was in a coma for several days (almost 2 weeks), and is still in the hospital due for release soon.  
However even though she has lost mobility to her left side, come hell or high water she will be realeased without medical supervision if the bill is not paid.


Elizabeth does not have any money. And now without her husband, even worse.  Her medical bills have started coming in and are mounting.  They do not have top notch, free healthcare in the Phillippines that we have here in Canada. 

Lucy has been at her sister's side the whole time, Elizabeth has been hospitalized and is dedicated to staying with her to care for her.
Sleeping in the waiting room chairs and eating cafeteria food.

In addition to the medical bills, therapy will be needed. 
So, I am appealing to the public to help me raise money for Lucy's sister's medical bills and following therapy, as well as the funeral costs for Elizabeth's husband. 

People don't have money I know, I get it, but everybody has a $1.
If a thousand people donated just $1. The person dying in a hospital, because of lack of funds, would have $1000. 
Think about that for a moment, before you blow it off as someone else's problem. What if it was your brother, sister, mother, father or friend.

Any amount you can give will be greatly appreciated.  We thank you in advance for your compassion, kindness and generosity.
