Campaign Story
I am Brian Albert A. Andanar, 31 years old, a nurse working in Metro Manila, Philippines. I was recently diagnosed with Non-Hodgkins Lymphoma, a kind of cancer that targets the lymph nodes. My career as a nurse is very rewarding in the sense that I get to serve people in need and it's something that I wish I can do for the rest of my life. However, it is not as financially rewarding and it leaves little breathing room to save money. Sadly, I am not financially capable of spending for expensive cancer treatments and medications. I need 6 cycles of chemotherapy amounting to roughly Php200,000 every session. This amount is due to the expensive chemo drugs needed to treat my aggressive disease. That is why I am humbly appealing to your generous heart for any amount that you can spare to help in raising funds for my treatments.
Please join me in this battle that I know we can win. Thank you and God bless you!
We accept donations through (PayPal) and bank deposits.

To be honest, I was kinda nervous but when I entered the room, I felt relaxed and I even fell asleep during the procedure. When it was over, the waiting game started. I prayed that hopefully the results. . . . .

Update posted by Brian Andanar at 01:11 pmHi! Here are some updates regarding my recent activities this past month.

Update posted by Brian Andanar at 02:10 pmI just finished my third chemo session last July 27-29, 2018.

1st Chemo Session Done!
Update posted by Brian Andanar at 07:26 amThe first drug that was given to me was Rituximab (Mabthera). The drug was infused slowly to observe for allergic reactions. Unfortunately, I had rashes and severe itching all over my body so the infusion had to be stopped momentarily. This is the most expensive drug among my chemo drugs,. . . . .
