Kin of ailing elderly couple appeal for help
Instead of spending the holidays at home, retired University of the Philippines employees Jesus Cabudoy and his wife, Salvacion, are confined in the hospital.
The couple were recently admitted to the National Kidney Transplant Institute in Quezon City for different reasons.
Jesus, 79, suffered a massive stroke on Dec. 9 and remains in the intensive care unit after undergoing brain surgery and dialysis.
Three days later, 70-year-old Salvacion was also admitted to the hospital for dengue fever. Their mounting hospital bills and other medical expenses have taken their toll on the family’s finances.
Still, their children hope to bring them home for Christmas, especially since Jesus is turning 80 on Jan. 1.
The Cabudoy siblings are asking for prayers and financial aid.
