A 24-YEAR-OLD patient in Barugo, Leyte is appealing for medical and financial help after suffering from hyperthyroidism/active toxic goiter for three years now.

Family and friends of Joy Geraldo Aguja took to social media to ask for assistance for the latter’s hospitalization needs.

“Kami po ay kumakatok sa inyong mga ginintuang puso para po sa pagpapagamot ng kanyang sakit. Kami po ng mga kaibigan, pamilya ni Joy lubos pong nananalig na sana po ay kami ay matulungan sa pagpapagamot sa kanya,” wrote Elaine Alberca on Facebook.

“Hindi po kami nawawalan ng pag-asa na babalik ang kanyang malusog na pangangatawan. Marami pa po syang kanyang pangarap para sa kanyang magulang at mga kapatid,” she added.

Aguja’s parents do not have permanent jobs to finance her regular check-up and medical treatment.
