Writing For A Cause: #SupportSisPachuchay

A week ago, I saw KQuesea's noise post regarding sis @Pachuchay's condition. In her post, sis Pachuchay was in critical condition and as a friend, I got scared and worried for her. From that moment on, I knew right away that I needed to do something; that I needed to help her even if it won't be a lot.

For those who didn't know, sis Pachuchay was diagnosed with Myasthenia gravis. To be honest, I have never heard of such a disease before. It sounds like a serious health issue for the rich, so I Googled for more details, and here's what I found.

Myasthenia gravis is characterized by weakness and rapid fatigue of any of the muscles under your voluntary control. It's caused by a breakdown in the normal communication between nerves and muscles.

There's no cure for myasthenia gravis, but treatment can help relieve signs and symptoms, such as weakness of arm or leg muscles, double vision, drooping eyelids, and difficulties with speech, chewing, swallowing and breathing.

Though this disease can affect people of any age, it's more common in women younger than 40 and in men older than 60.

Her condition has no cure, unfortunately, but with the help of treatment, it can relieve signs and symptoms. This is why she has taken her medications and diet seriously. Poor, sis Pachuchay, because despite her effort to stay healthy, this disease still managed to weaken her body, which led her to be hospitalized.

It has been a week now, and although she can finally move her hands and legs, she still can't breathe on her own. She still needs air support to help her breathe properly. Well, progress is still progress, so there's still a reason to be happy! However, according to Crizha, her daughter, their hospital bills have already reached 100K or $2K. That's a lot!

I'd like to thank EirMacEnaj for DM'ng me Crizha's number. Without her, I wouldn't be able to chat Crizha about the status of her mom.

With that being said, I want to help her in my own simple way. However, I cannot do it alone as I am broke too. This is why I need your help and support. This is why I have been spamming you with my plea to spare some BCH for our friend in need since yesterday. Thankfully, there were people who shared some BCH. From the initial $7.10, which was supposed to be the prize pool for our Chess/Scrabble Tournament, I now have $20 in my wallet.

Since $20 is, obviously, not enough, I decided not to rely on BCH donations alone. So I went on to Gcash and urged our fellow noisers to share any amount to my account. At that time, I only have 43 PHP in my wallet but now, it has 1,318 PHP already + 30 PHP in Paymaya. But that didn't stop there, because I know Rusty could be a great help too. I don't think he would mind helping us earn extra more for this great cause.

Since Rusty has been so generous to me lately, I thought of taking advantage of this opportunity. So all tips received from this article will be added to sis Pachuchay's wallet. Since we all know that Rusty doesn't tip everything in one day, I will have to wait 3 days before converting my BCH into fiat or asking someone to trade my BCH for his peso.

As mentioned above, there are 3 ways to donate:

• Send directly to our wallet

This way, you wouldn't have to deal with 10% fees. Any amount will do. We need every single penny for sis Pachuchay. So don't be shy or hesitate to share just because you only have $0.10 because every penny counts.

Here's the address:

bitcoincash:qq7dftg94lw2w747sjs6tm8e5356nqtjvceess5zja

• Send to my Gcash account

To our Filipino friends/readers here, you can send it to my Gcash. Again, any amount will do. It can be 5, 10, or 20 PHP. Of course, if you can share more, then that would be great! Again, any amount as long as it is given heartily.

You can send it here:

09260010729 under the name Mary Jane B.

• Tip this article

Well, this one is the easiest. It's just one click away to support this great cause. It doesn't matter how much, what matters to me is that you share.

All tips, may it be in BCH or peso, will be sent to her this coming Wednesday. Don't worry, I will always keep you posted.

No extra BCH or peso to share? No worries!

You can still show your support by sharing this article or any of my noise posts regarding sis Pachuchay's update. This way, you can help me spread the word. And last but not the least, pray for her. Pray that she will overcome and win her battle against this illness. That she will recover very soon and can finally come back to her happy and healthy self again.

Closing thoughts

We may not be able to accumulate enough money to help with her hospital bills but together, we can at least save some for her medicines and other necessities. So I urged everyone to spread the word and donate some or as much as you can to help our dearest friend who badly needs our support.
