We are humbly asking for prayers and financial assistance for Mommy Eunice Rogando and her newborn baby, Baby Elie

On May 2, 2026, Baby Elie was born prematurely at only 26 weeks (6 months and 2 weeks in the womb). She is currently confined in the NICU of Philippine General Hospital and is on a ventilator to help her breathe.

Baby Elie was born weighing only 720 grams, and her weight later dropped to 500 grams due to her fragile condition. According to the doctors, she may need to stay in the NICU for 3 months or more, and the projected hospital expenses may reach ₱ 1 million to ₱ 2 million.

Adding to their hardship, Mommy Eunice was recently laid off from her job due to company cost-cutting measures, leaving her husband as the family’s sole source of income.

To those who are willing to help, any amount will go a long way in supporting Baby Elie’s medical treatment and daily needs.

We sincerely ask for your prayers, kindness, and support for Mommy Eunice and Baby Elie during this difficult time.

Thank you so much, and may God bless you abundantly.

Sincerely,

Vanessa

- Mom of a 30-weeker preemie baby
