Fundraiser for My Mom’s Cancer Recovery

I’m creating this fundraiser for my mother because she lost access to her banking account after falling into debt from her loans and the hospital bills from last year. Since her throat cancer diagnosis, everything has been difficult for her. She cannot work, she cannot speak, and she cannot receive money on her own, so I’m doing this for her.


This past year changed our whole family. When my mom was diagnosed with throat cancer, our normal life disappeared. We had to face fear, stress, and a fight we never expected. She still goes through pain every day. She struggles with breathing, swallowing, and moving, and she needs full care from morning until night. Even with all of this, she keeps fighting. Her strength shows how much she wants to live.


She has gone through surgeries, hospital stays, infections, and many setbacks. Every day brings a new challenge. But even in the hardest moments, we see God helping her. Every small improvement reminds us that His grace is real. We believe Jesus is with her, and we believe she will be healed through faith.


As a Filipino American family with no insurance and no disability support, we have been doing everything we can. But her needs are now too much for us to handle alone. She needs long‑term medical care, cancer treatments, equipment, transportation, therapy, and daily support to keep her safe.


Our fundraiser goal is $500,000, which will help cover:


- long‑term medical care

- cancer treatments

- home health support

- medical equipment and supplies

- transportation for appointments and emergencies

- stable housing during recovery

- therapy and rehabilitation

- daily care and monitoring


We also want to be clear and honest.

Some of the support we received came from friends, family, and people in our community who helped us privately through handouts or direct help. These gifts were a blessing, but they do not count toward the withdrawal balance on this fundraiser. They still show up on the page, but we cannot access them. This is why our fundraiser is still urgent and still needed. Any help big or small, one‑time or monthly truly makes a difference for my mom’s care.


We also have another fundraiser created by my dad on GiveSendGo called “Help Cover Maribelle’s Medical Bills and Daily Care.” Any support here or there goes directly toward helping my mom continue her healing.


We appreciate everyone who believes in us, supports us, and never doubted our situation. Your kindness means more than you know.


My mom is still fighting, still holding on, and we continue to trust that Jesus will heal her. Her journey is ongoing, and we

are walking it with faith.
