On June 13, 2026, our son Matheo Gabriel was born prematurely at 27 weeks — way too early, and way too small to face the world on his own. He's currently in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) at Angeles City Mother and Child Hospital (ACMCH) connected to a mechanical ventilator just to breathe.

Every day is uncertain. His condition changes day by day, and the doctors can't yet tell us how long this fight will last. What we do know is that he is a fighter — and as his parents, we will fight for him with everything we have.

The costs of NICU care, ventilator support, medications, and daily hospital fees are mounting fast, and they show no signs of slowing down. We've been doing everything we can — using our own savings, asking relatives, and applying for LGU (local government) medical assistance — but there's no guarantee that help will be approved in time, and the bills don't wait.

This is why we're humbly asking for help. Any amount — big or small — will go directly toward:

NICU daily confinement fees,

Mechanical ventilator and respiratory support costs,

Medications, laboratory works and supplies

We know times are hard for everyone, and we don't take this lightly. Even a small donation, or simply sharing this campaign with others, means the world to us right now.

Please also keep Matheo Gabriel in your prayers. He is small, but he is strong, and we believe he can pull through this with the support of people like you.

Maraming salamat po sa inyong tulong at pagdarasal. 🙏
