RE: Dear Concerned Steemians: The Orthopedic Surgeon Referred me to Specialists that can Handle my Rare Case

in #philippines7 years ago (edited)

This is the message I sent to Open Heart International , operation smile and craniofacial. www.ohi.org.au , australia.operationsmile.org, www.craniofacial.com.au
The message is brief. I will lobby others. Let me know what to include.


I have been in touch with a young man in the Philippines for some time. He is is dire need of medical attention.
He has received treatment for dialysis that has caused devastating repercussions.
This is his last message to me

I had been on dialysis for nearly 15 years now and due to lack of management, it afffected my bones already and developed Leontiasis.
My Parathyroid needs to be operated on and my extra bone growth needs to be taken of and my face reconstructed.
I needed help, if you can get me an assistance I will be thankful and grateful. Please help me.
God Bless you.

He has been blogging in the hopes that someone will be able to help him. He is an intelligent, gentle, gracious, humble communicator .

I will attach his blog here .
He has shared the progress of his attempts to find treatment in the Philippines. The treatment is not appropriate or affordable to him.
Getting treatment will change his life and his family.

I hope you can help. If you can't.
Please let me know who, how, where I can approach to lobby for help for this lovely young man.
Sincerest regards

Sorry for my late response, I have an Internet problem.
I am very thankful about your assistance for my case @girlbeforemirror
I am hopeful really that the people you are contacting can give me some relief for my condition as it greatly affected my life already.
Any help that they can give I will accept just to liberate me from this kind of misery.
Thank you again @girlbeforemirror

I am mostly housebound too. My condition isn't medically urgent like yours, but it does prevent me from doing too much.
I can email from my phone even lying down, and I will keep doing it.
I have had some knock backs already, but I will keep it up.
Charities, medical specialists, media, politicians and Filipino / Australian community.
I saw an email on the go fund me page. Can I contact you on that?

Thank you for all you for all your assistance @girlbeforemirror
I do appreciate and grateful for all you are doing. I just hope that we strike luck on this.
You can contact me on my yahoo email: [email protected] for an immediate response if I have no Internet problem.

You don't need to express anymore gratitude to me. You have given me purpose, and I want to do what I can.
I am going to use your graciousness and add in some of my entitlement.
We live in a world where we have become accustomed to believing that entitlement is equivalent to wealth or luck. I believe you are entitled just because you are.
I will cc you into my emails from now.

I have also contacted https://www.creatinghopefoundation.org.au

The founder Moira Kelly has achieved some amazing outcomes for young people.

I don't want to create hope ahead of achieving success, but I think collectively we can achieve a positive outcome for you.
