This for my strong willed, loving, caring and best mother.

Hi,

I am reaching out to everyone to help my mother recover and survive this medical ordeal we are currently facing. She experienced a heart attack and was desperate for air last Jan, 1, 2022 at close to midnight of Jan, 2, 2022. It has been an ordeal right from the start since we are unable to find a hospital that will accept her condition and fully attend to her. During that journey itself, we've already paid around close to 20000 pesos to keep alive with oxygen and emergency help from a nearby hospital. Unfortunately, they are not fully equipped and we were forced to find a new hospital to fully attend to her. We were able to land on a hospital right away and it was only then on the 3rd or 4th we got attended since the small oxygen tank we bought only had less than an our of oxygen to support her. From the emergency room they were able to take a few tests and we found out that it was indeed a heart attack that happened which may have cause some problems to her other organs too (she was also diagnosed with pneumonia with the tests made). Her vital were good for a few days in the hospital but she was already hooked up to a heart rate monitor the entire time to monitor her heart, oxygen levels, respiratory rate and blood pressure to say the least. But things slowly took for the worse on the 3rd day, she began experiencing fever and an elevated blood pressure. And on the 4th night, things took even worse as she experience another heart attack which resulted into a cardiac arrest. It was painful to see my mother's heart rate monitor flat line and took her last breath but the medical team did their best and was able to revive her. But during this, I can see my mother's suffering as she fight for her life especially when they were trying to intubate her. I can see how painful it must have been for her especially while they were trying to intubate her to get her oxygen levels back to normal. She was even given big doses of medicine several times to get her calm and sleep but it must have been very painful for her during that time and it was not able to get her to sleep. After a few more doses she was able to sleep and she was fully intubated but still wakes up from time to time because of a pain she is experiencing in her chest. She then has been transferred to the ICU facility and hooked up to a very large breathing apparatus. Today, as of writing, on her 6th day at the hospital, her doctor called and advised us that she is now experiencing kidney issues as well and her creatinine is very high and now found blood on her urine And she is now needed to be referred to a fourth doctor, a Nephrologist to find out what wrong with her kidney. Over the course of 24 hrs her hospital bill skyrocketed with a 100000PHP difference in less than 24 hrs from being transferred to ICU, then add to that her current bill from her 1st day of confinement. I am not sure how high her bill will go up since she would need to undergo angiogram to find out what's wrong with her heart by the time she is capable to do so.

My mother, is a very generous, responsible, loving, thoughtful, selfless, caring, supportive, fun loving, and a jolly mother. Even these adjective are not enough to describe how great and special she is and all we want is for her to fully recover, come home with us with a smile and full of love so that we can have a complete home again. I am an only child by with my mother on our home, it became truly a home because of her as she defines the term "Ilaw ng tahanan" or "light of the home". We just want to get her back home and take of her and make her feel better, Our home is not a home without her and we just want her to survive this. She has shown great amounts of strength and showed that she wants to get well and come back home with us and that is the only thing we want as well.

We have always been just a standard household and we do not have enough funds to support her hospital bills. But I know that God is good and he just by her side throughout all of this. And I know that my mother has still a lot to give that is why God is keeping her alive. I continuously pray for His grace and strength so that my mother will be able to get through this. And with God's blessing, our prayers and financial aid, I know that my mother will be able to survive this.

In God's glory, please be our miracle and help us get through this. Please help become my mother's extension of her life. Any amount of help is appreciated and please feel free to share this as well. God bless!
