Hi, I would like to request on your good office a medical assistance for my Father Alexander A. Avila who is currently in QMMC hospital due to brain surgery for the removal of his cerebral mass. He is recovering slowly and the doctors approved that he can be discharged. However, we don’t have enough funds for discharge due to the complications that happened in the surgery wherein he was in the ICU for a month. Right now, the total medical bill have reached almost 400,000Php and the professional fee have reached 500,000Php. We are unable to produce such amount for his discharge.
