Asking for help for my sister’s surgery

Hi everyone,

I’m reaching out to ask for help for my sister, Melrose, who urgently needs surgery in Dubai. She has been diagnosed with a large ovarian cyst (around 16 cm) that is causing ongoing pain, and doctors have advised immediate surgical removal due to the risk of complications.

She is currently unemployed, and her insurance has not approved coverage for the procedure. She’s also unable to return home to the Philippines for treatment at this time. The total cost for the surgery and hospital care is around 52,000 AED (≈ €13,000), which is far beyond what we can afford.

We are doing everything we can as a family, but we truly need support. Any donation or even just sharing this would mean so much to us.

Thank you so much for your kindness and support. 🤍

Help Me Decide

Hello,

I want to know your opinion and experiences po.

I'm 26 years old po, currently working as a Project Staff, Job Order in a Government Office.

What are your thoughts about student loans? Just to fund studies abroad?

I mean, I will try to apply for a scholarship but if it goes the other way around. I'm thinking of applying for a student loan na lang, just to fund my studies abroad for a Masters Degree.

Nakikita ko naman na kaya siyang bayaran kasi may iba na allowed ang 25 years payment Or 10 years, depende sa laki ng loan.

I don't know, gusto ko lang maging OFW and thinking na baka if mag aral ako doon pwede na rin ako mag work sa ibang bansa. Naiisip ko siya as a gateway to live and migrate na rin.

Countries I'm considering are: Canada, UK, or Spain.

I'm aware na mahigpit na sa Canada pero kakayanin naman siguro mag aral doon and hanao ng work and eventually be a Permanent Resident.

Yung Spain kasi, based on my research 2 years palang PR ka na.

I don't know, I'm still considering some things. Want to know your thoughts po. Thank you very much. Ang hirap kasi maka permanent position dito kaya kinokonsider ko na makapunta ng ibang lugar.
