Guys we need your help...MY SON NEEDS HEART SURGERY!

I am Celeste Franzuela-Cosgafa, mother of 6 year old Chicko Cyan F. Cosgafa. My son was about to finish his Kindergarten II but had to stop because he was diagnosed with a very serious illness medically known as Hypertrophic Obstructive Cardiomyopathy.

Because of the gravity of the disease, the team of doctors from the Philippine Heart Center is recommending to perform Septal Myectomy and implantation of permanent pacemaker. However, it will entail a huge amount of money which the family and relatives cannot afford.

In this connection, May I request for your financial assistance for the hospital expenses and physician fees and for his permanent pacemaker. We, the family, relatives and friends will try our best to raise the amount for the remaining balance.

I am only a simple housewife and my husband works as contract worker whose income is barely enough to support his family and Chicko’s medication. Chicko, as a child, is very lovable. He has shown interest in learning as shown by his perfect attendance in class. He is a happy and smart kid who's very proud to show his good grades and his achievements to his parents and grandparents. We don’t want to lose him and his future. We want to see Chicko grow and achieve so much in life.

Any financial support will always be cherished and remembered.

Hoping to receive a positive response. Thank you.

  4. I believe a video, even low-quality, on youtube will help very very much. This will also attract media attention easier so you can spread the news even faster.

  5. Bai mga taga dubai, mag setup ta fund raising campaign sa mga kaila nato dire. Daghan naman ta mga taga Bigfoot in Dubai. Let's spread the word to our friends as they might have a good heart to help. I'm positive we can come up w/ a significant amount of assistance para sa successful operation unya ni Chicko. Our Dirhams would mean a lot. Let us show support to a friend in need... this time, not in words, but in deed.

  7. If they are interested to give monetary help, where and how can they send it? You must set-up an account for Chicko's medical fund.

  18. Feel free to explore help from your municipal mayor and governor/congressman.

    then,go to the social services office of PGH
    to ask possible options for hospital bills..they may refer you to PCSO..

    ..just additional info for other source of funds for the hospital expenses.

    God bless your you and your child!

  19. You can contact Dr. Wyben Briones from Rotary Cebu. I know that they worked on some heart medical mission a couple of years ago. He's a neuro surgeon and has office at Chong Hua Medical Arts.

    Hope this can help!

    God bless!
