Help a pregnant mom with Stage 4 Breast Cancer

My 36yo niece LANE LAJOT DIAZ - a wife, a mom of a 2yo boy and who is currently 6mos pregnant was recently diagnosed with STAGE 4 BREAST CANCER.

As per her doctors, the cancer has spread to her bones hence the lumps in her spine and forehead area. A portion of her spine has also started to crack.

Lane is jobless - she lost her job during the pandemic when her eldest son was just barely a year old. Her husband works as a part-time driver and earns almost USD100 (PhP4,000) per month. Way below the minimum wage. They are based in Sta. Catalina, Negros Oriental but are now in Dumaguete City (a province in the Philippines) to seek for better treatment. Family and friends have pooled in funds but it is not much as life is hard in their area. We have also sought help from government agencies and officials. But as we speak, papers are still being processed and the amount is not much.

Their current hospital bill is at USD800 (PhP40,000) and running. But there are a lot of procedures on hold right now since they no longer have the money to pay for them. Papsmear, operation (estimated at PhP200-300K), chemotherapy (estimated at 400K), treatments and operation for the baby in her womb are all in a halt. They were ready to give up but Lane as a mom really wants to fight especially since her kids are still very young (one even just on the way). We wanna give her that fighting chance. While we know it's a terminal stage and the doctors have not specified any time left for her, we wanna help her and give her the chance to live longer and hopefully experience God's miracles.

As we speak, she is in excruciating pain due to her spine but she tries to endure it just to avoid adding up to her bill. It's really heartbreaking.

It is my prayer that God will touch and move you to extend whatever amount you can to help this young mom and have a fighting chance not just for her life but for her kids as well. Thank you very much and GOD BLESS YOU EXTENSIVELY.

Sincerely,

Celia Lajot
