My name is Kaye. I’m the eldest in our family of 3 (with my two brothers and my son) – my mom being a single mother. This is the reason I decided to write our story. We could not ask for a better mother. Despite the challenges our family has faced – my mother has been our Rock.
She’s always found ways to keep us in school, takes the time to take care of us and at the same time balances an 8-to-5 job. The biggest proof I have of my mother’s constant love is when she supported my decision to have a son without placing any judgment at all.
And now, early in April, we were told of a devastating news that she has Stage 3 breast cancer. My immediate thought was how to help her. I am too young to be able to contribute financially, but I can still do something about my mother’s condition.
Through this crowdfunding app, I am appealing to your generous hearts to help raise funds for her medical and hospital bills. Even before getting chemotherapy, she has already spent Php100,000 for laboratory test, citiscans, and biopsy procedures. We’re grateful for her HMO, but it is not enough to cover for all hospital and medical bills.
She has to undergo chemotherapy six times and each time costs P75,000 – that’s not even including hospital bills, other medications, and doctor’s fees. Add in another P30,000, that means we need Php100,000 for every treatment. I have heard her consult with doctors and friends asking where she can get funding from local government agencies and similar programs such as PCSO, DSWD for patients who need financial assistance.
I hope to raise around US$10,000 (or Php500,000) to defray her medical bills. If you can spare a bit of time to tell your friends about our situation by sharing this link, our family will be most grateful.

. Paypal account: dimpy.cabahug1972@gmail.com
Most of all, we value your prayers. Please pray for her fast recovery and for strength in her mind and body as the chemotherapy is taking a toll on her physical well being.

ABUNDANTLY BLESSED AND DEEPLY GRATEFUL … this enabled me to get a much needed respite and have some PEACE and QUIET. What started as a source of anxiety this weekend as we don’t have water and electricity in the house turned out to be a chance for us (my little ones and myself) to get away from the city to a place in the mountains my sister offered for some fresh air.
Last week was full of apprehension since I was rushed to Chong Hua Mandaue for unexpected chest pains after my 3rd cycle treatment. A series of lab tests ensued. Thank the good Lord – all the tests were clear and showed that my body is responding well to the medication.
Expenses came to:
P52,156.61 – laboratory tests and hospital room
25,000.00 – covered by HMO
------------------
27,156.61 – used remaining donation collected from July
Another cause for heartfelt gratitude – our Office Team sponsored the cost of my cycle 4 treatment this August 15. So touched by everyone’s kindness. Thank you from the bottom of my heart … God bless you all!
