Hi Pozzie,
This friend of mine is just a kid, 21 years old. I doubt if any of his family knows his real condition. He is alone, desolated and only depends on me for day to day living support. He doesn't even have Philhealth. As much as I wanted to help him financially to at least go through the initial treatments, I can only do so much. He has to undergo theraphy for his liver and kidney once a week and hospital bills pile up, like P8000 per week. It is just too much for me to handle, and the sad part is none of his relatives are financially capable of helping him either even if they would have known.
POZZIEPINOY’S RESPONSE
Hi XXX.
Thank you for your email.
Please tell your friend to go to RITM-ARG in Alabang and get another opinion there. Tell him to look for either Maram or Let and tell them that Pozziepinoy referred him to them. If he qualifies for either The Love Fund or the assessment for PCSO assistance, then the staff will definitely assist him for his treatment. Tell your friend to bring his HIV confirmatory result and all his lab tests and prescription and ask the staff that he will be needing medical assistance for his medicines.
I hope I was able to answer your concerns. Feel free to email me again if you have other questions.
Stay healthy,
Pozziepinoy
