Hi, my name is Victoria (posting anonymously for now).
I never thought I’d be in this position—asking strangers for help—but today, I’m swallowing my pride and reaching out with a mother’s heart, a daughter’s worry, and a deep sense of desperation.
I’m an overseas worker and a single mother of four incredible children, all of whom are now in university. I’ve been raising them alone for over 10 years, with no support from their father who abandoned us completely. Every day, I work hard to keep them in school, pay for our basic needs, and give them a future I never had. I’ve always managed to get by… until now.
A few days ago, my mother was rushed to the hospital. Her condition was serious, and within just three days, her medical bills have already reached ₱75,000 (even after senior citizen discounts). As of this posting my mother still in the hospital for already 10 days. My parents have no savings or retirement fund, and their small pension only covers basic meals. I’ve been doing my best to help them while supporting my children, but this time, it’s beyond what I can handle.
I don’t have savings. Every cent I earn goes to tuition, rent, food, and helping my aging parents with their maintenance medication. I’ve tried applying for online jobs for extra income, but nothing has worked out. And here in the country where I work, taking on part-time jobs is illegal. I also suffer from thyroid and liver issues myself and occasionally need to see a doctor, but I keep putting it off to take care of everyone else.
I feel overwhelmed… but I can’t give up. My children still need me. My mother needs me. And I need a miracle right now.
If you’ve read this far—thank you. Even a small donation or a share can ease the burden and give my family a fighting chance. We’re looking for ₱150,000.00 of medical bills atleast. I don’t expect the world, just a little compassion from kind-hearted souls like you.
From a daughter who’s doing her best,
Thank you and may you be blessed in ways you need most.
