Purpose: bypass surgery for my dad at Philippine Heart Center
Date of Coverage: 03/30/2023 - 03/30/2023
Tracking no: #OVP-737775536306
Good day! Currently, my dad's admitted at Philippine Heart Center and underwent angiogram. Sadly, ang daming bara sa arteries niya at di kaya ng angioplasty. Advised bypass surgery siya as soon as possible kasi delikado if papatagalin pa according sa cardiologist kaya di rin kami pinayagan umuwi. We were quoted 900k for the bypass package but need at least 350k downpayment para makasecure na kami ng schedule at magawa yung procedure. Unfortunately, we don't have that kind of money. Kaya we are here to ask for financial help para maka-raise kami ng funds for his surgery.
