Greetings! We would like to request for financial assistance from your office. My father has been admitted in the hospital due to Covid 19 (severe) from September 12, 2021 todate. He is under a cocktail of medications because he also has severe pneumonia. He was transferred to another hospital on September 14, 2021 as he needs high flow nasal cannula oxygen. The bill has already reached Php 200,000 and is continuing to rack up. We urgently need financial assistance to cover for the bill and other medications/ expenses. Hoping for your consideration on the above. Thank you.
