Jerome's condition:

As of this morning, Jerome has already been transferred to NKTI. He feels more comfortable and relaxed in the hospital's quiet and serene atmosphere.

"Nanunuot ang klima... my soul is at peace... ang sarap dito..." words from Jerome about staying in NKTI.

His new environment is slowly helping him revitalize his energy. His kidney treatment are still our main concern which is further complicated by diabetes type 2. He had dialysis again today. He is still expected to remain in the hospital for a few weeks.

Visitors and attending friends:

As of the moment, we were adviced not to allow visitors except attending friends who are able to assist in the hospital for his dialy needs. Rest and recovery are his utmost priority. Excessive talking and loud activities may cause stress to Jerome and can hamper his recovery.

However, as an alternative means of communicating and expressing your sympathies, you may leave your messages on the comments section below. Or if you prefer to send a more personal message to Jerome, you may send it to [email protected]. Please know that Jerome is still not able to read very well so we will occassionally ask trusted friends to read your letters to him on your behalf. Should you prefer to send a video or audio message, you may send us a link instead. Please limit audio and videos to a maximum of 2 mins and no more than 5mb in size. Make sure the content is calming, and inspiring or encouraging. Jerome is undergoing a very challenging experience in his life and we hope to keep an environment that is loving and optimistic.

Today, a couple of friends relieved Sir Tim in accompanying Jerome. Sir Tim has been attending Jerome's needs since Monday. We are thankful to them for quickly responding to our call for assistance.

Medical Expenses and Contributions:

As of today, Jerome has received the total amount of P168,698 offline and online is. He is very thankful to the generosity of the people who gave their support unconditionally. And without hesitation. We are still computing for the estimated daily costs of his medicines, treatments and other hospital expenses in the next weeks. We have to face the reality that his HMO can no longer cover his medical expenses because its limits has been reached. We are going to request support from PCSO after the holidays to ensure there will be enough funding for Jerome's treatments. So for the mean time, we are still asking for your continuous support by sharing this page to those who may want to contribute.

Please keep him in your prayers tonight including the people who have been by his side during this trying times. His battle is still ongoing and we are relying on everyone's kindness and generosity so we may strengthen our faith and continue the fight!
