Living with HIV in the Philippines: Email 254: Assistance for Sibling

Hi Pozziepinoy

Papano po ba makakahingi ng tulong sa PCSO. Yung kapatid ko kasi, di siya naka enroll sa RITM or sa SLH. Multiple complications din siya at ngayon, undergoing chemotherapy pa for an HIV related malignancy. Ubos na ang pera namin dahil sa labas masok niya sa ospital at kailangan na uli siya ipa chemo (3rd session niya).

How can we seek assistance from PCSO? My sibling is not enrolled in RITM or SLH. He has multiple complications now, undergoing chemotherapy for an HIV related malignancy. We don’t have any money anymore because of his frequent hospitalization and he needs to have his third chemo.
