Lourdes Needs to Undergo Thoracentesis

...

Hi, My name is Lourdes Ulanday, 72 years old, my friends and family call me Ode or simply call me "mommy."Two weeks ago, I was rushed to the hospital due to an accident where I tripped and my head hit the floor badly. Because of the accident, the doctor had to stitch my forehead due to the strong impact. While I was at the hospital, the doctors did a thorough check on me since I am also diabetic. I had an infection that needed to be addressed ASAP so they also did a surgery on my infected foot. After 2 days, I was able to get home.Now, I am back in the hospital again due to complications. I was rushed to the hospital again for the 2nd time due to difficulty in breathing. We found out that there is fluid in my lungs and heart. If a lot of water gets into the lungs and is not expelled, it can irritate the lining of the lungs and cause fluid buildup ― a condition called pulmonary edema.The procedures that need to get done are Thoracentesis ― a procedure to remove fluid or air from around the lungs and Pericardiocentesis ― a procedure done to remove fluid that has built up in the sac around the heart (pericardium).My running bill right now is already at PHP 150,000+ pesos and counting.Normally, we would keep this on our own and try to manage the overwhelming financial needs within the family. However, it has come to a point that we need to ask for support. We humbly ask for your assistance. The amount raised will cover the increasing medical bills and expenses of the family. A little goes a long way and any amount is very much appreciated.

Medical Assistance for Farrah Eliza

...

Early this year, i was infected by COVID19. I suffered for two weeks (January 7-20) trying to recover from the virus. I decided to went home quarantine since i know i can manage my symptoms. The healing process was not easy in all aspects - physically, emotionally and financially.. Yes, i got broke financially that time but who cares? Whats important is for me to recover immediately even i spent almost all my savings. Thank God, i recovered i was able to get back to work immediately.Little did i know, i was pregnant at the same time. I was just able to confirm it by February 9 when i had my ultrasound and found out that it was already 5 weeks and 4 days.. Unfortunately, i was suffering from Subchorionic hematoma and was forced to have a bedrest and stop working. I was devastated by that time because my partner and i got separated few weeks early so i have to face this alone. Again, i need large amount of money for my medication and for my baby's much needed nutrients.. However, my savings was not enough that time so i had to loan some from my friends.. I will do everything for my baby to survive. I know God will provide. Two weeks later, i was diagnosed with BLIGHTED OVUM. My baby havent developed as per my Obgyne. I was advised to take madicine so i will have a miscarriage the normal way. But i didnt lose hope still.. I tried to seek for a second opinion and after two more weeks, the second doctor confirmed it.. I lose hope.. I was devastated once more. And i had to undergo D&C procedure which costed me around $800 which again, i loaned from a friend. It depressed me.Recovering was not easy emotionally and physically adding that I am so broke financially. I am in debt for almost $2500 now and i am trying to raise fund not to just pay for it but for me to be able to start up. I am planning to start a business in which i will sell foods or anything that i can offer.. In that way i can earn enough money to pay for my debt and to provide my everyday needs. Please help me and have mercy. Once a recovered from all of these, i will definitely pay it forward. God bless your golden heart.
