Diagnosis: Stroke

Update posted by Veronica Hofilena

My Papa was diagnosed with stroke yesterday. Attached on this update is his CT scan: hemorrhage on one side of the brain and the other side has blockage. The doctor can't proceed with surgery since it's too risky. Last night he started his medication for seizure which costs 6k per vial and he needs 4 vials a day. 2 vials in the morning and another 2 at night. That's already 24k/day for us and I heard from my brother that the doctor will need to increase the dosage, meaning -- additional payment. Later today, our family will discuss about moving him to a government hospital just so we could cope up with the expenses. We are now trying our luck to get additional funds through PCSO, DSWD and also at the Mayor's office in Cainta. Please continue to pray for our Papa. It really breaks my heart everytime I see him in the ICU looking lifeless. Thank you to all who has been supporting us: visiting, praying and sending financial help. Our gratitude is with you. May God bless us all.
