Ashley Bonto was still in her nursery years when the recurring headaches and nausea she felt while in class were found to be caused by a brain tumor.
Speaking to the Inquirer recently, Ashley’s mother Masidel said her daughter, now aged 7, needed to undergo an eight-cycle chemotherapy at Philippine General Hospital.
Seeking financial assistance, Bonto said they were now just awaiting a call from their PGH oncologist before they could proceed with the fourth cycle of the chemotherapy.
“I’m calling on your kind-hearted readers to help us raise P83,000 for the fourth cycle,” said the plain housewife who has two children with husband Anthony, a worker in a garments factory in Dasmariñas City.
