When Alfrance Pajarillo, 32 yrs old, checked in at the Dagupan Provincial Hospital recently because he felt something wrong with his body, he was informed that it was just a simple problem on his nerves. He never got well so he decided to visit Baguio General Hospital and Medical Center for further diagnosis. He was then informed of the root cause of his problem, his spinal cord including a lump on it and along with it the shrinking of his legs making unable to walk.
Alfrance has in his care a nine year old daughter with his wife, whom they are already separated for eight years now. He left the care his daughter to his mother, the only person available to, in Paniqui, Tarlac, when was confined at the BGHMC. His father passed away last August, 2013.
He is also now in financial trouble as he has to abandon his job as a tricycle driver in Paniqui due to his illness. Even his brother, Anthony, had to resign from his work as a crew of a fast food here in Baguio because nobody can take care of him while at the hospital.
His hospital bill as of a week ago already reached P15,000 and he might have to stay there longer for his recovery. He also needs B type blood as he is scheduled to undergo operation.
He is in dire need for help and any kind of assistance is a welcome sight for him. Interested parties who would like to help can call or text his brother, Anthony Pajarillo at mobile number 09194103134.
