Move for Gemma

Move For Gemma is a fundraising initiative for the benefit of Ms. Ma. Gemma P. Detera.

Gemma is loving wife and a mother of one. She loves conquering mountains and going to adventure trips. She is a business development and marketing manager by profession but took a hiatus from her longtime corporate career when she was diagnosed with Bell’s Palsy and Hypertension last March.

Last June 9 2018, she met a vehicular accident on her way to a tour at Ilocos Norte and was admitted to Don Mariano Memorial Medical Center where she was given immediate care.

After which, she was brought back to Manila and admitted to The Medical City where her operations took place.

Here's her condition:
Bilateral Hip Pain with acetabular fracture hip dislocation of the left
A fem neck fracture on the right

Other significant findings:
(+) Racoon Eyes
Left with subconconjuctival hemorrage
Ecchymosis on left chin to left maxillary area
Ecchymosis on the right shoulder, right breast left arm
Hematoma on volar aspect of right wrist
Swelling on the right wrist
Right lower extremity externally rotated
Left lower extremity on neutral position

By God’s grace, her operations were successful and recovery is on its way. But because of the impact of the accident, it took a toll on her health and resulted in her disability.

Aside from that, our hospital bills reached almost 700,000 with the help of different people, our own funds. PCSO, Philhealth we are left to raise 300,000 to the credit card which was used to pay the hospital so she can be discharged.

She was discharged last June 26, and is getting home care and continuous Physical Therapy and Rehabilitation which costs at 1,500/session and given thrice a week together with follow up XRay, CT Scan and Check ups on the weeks to come. In behalf of the Detera family, we would like to thank everyone who helped to The Medical City , CCF Family, B1G Singles Ministry, Unique/ God is Able Ministry for the wheelchair and a lot more.

Please continually pray for Gemma’s recovery and provision in her family. Having Gemma in this condition really made a huge financial impact on their family. But amidst all these, God is always sovereign and in control.
