"In Sept 2013, while pregnant with our 2nd child, i was diagnosed with Chronic Mylogenous Leukemia (CML). We have battled it out and I was officially in remission since January 2016 (cancer free).
Last July 18, 2016 i was rushed to the ER because of abdominal pain, ultrasound showed a raptured cyst caused some bleeding that's why i was feeling so much pain. CT Scan was done in my abdomen to rule out appendicitis. Incidentally, scan also showed several liver masses and thicken ing in the colon. Doctors opened me up on July 20, 2016 and confirmed there is a tumor in the colon near the rectum. For the past 2 weeks, we have consulted with several doctors and done the necessary tests. Yesterday, it was confirmed i have metastatic rectal cancer (stage IV). Tumors have spread to my liver, uterus, ovary, abdomen. I need immediate surgery to remove most of the cancer cells and then a special chemo to the abdomen at a cost of P1.5 - P2 million.
To our relatives and friends, my family and I would like to ask for your support (especially prayers) to help us raise the money needed for the surgery and chemotheraphy.
Please share this page so we can spread the word. May God bless us all."
