Hepatitis B Vaccination in the City

I have been seeing a lot of banners around our city stating that they offer Hepa B vaccination services, but yes, for a fee.

Vaccination for hepatitis B is like around PhP 1,500 (US$1= PhP 43 something). If you are an average worker earning minimum (PhP 250.00), you definitely will not be able to take advantage of the vaccination program and will just leave everything to faith.LOL.
Well, I mean, no wonder diseases around infest the poor. I mean, they do not have an immediate access to medicines and vaccinations due to the fact that they cannot afford it. They would rather buy themselves food instead of buying them a vaccine that confer them the needed protection against vaccine-preventable life-threatening diseases like Hepatitis B.

Well, I would not want to believe that life is unfair and people are not created equal but I am hoping that governments around the globe will include free adult immunization program as part of their health programs for the masses - at least just on the basic-health services.

Sorry...

As with most of my other blogsites, I would like to apologize for not being able to update my blog for almost a month now. My mom's health predicament made me so much busy and rendered me incapable to do other things, hence my blogs slept. :)

Now that everything came back to normal, I promise to update my blogs. Be sure to check my other blogs as well. My main blog keeps the regular update because I can usually write almost anything in there, unlike this blog which caters only for health issues related HIV and AIDS.

You can check on my other blogs by clicking on the blogsites under the MY BLOGS on the right side of this blogscreen. Thanks!

Insurmountable Pain

I haven't been able to write something in my blog for the past 8 days due to my mom being at ICU at St. Raphael Foundation and Medical Center. She suffered massive blood loss because her lung tissues collapsed due to frequent coughing and add to that - infections. Now that her immune system dropped, she suffered from secondary bacterial infections such as Tuberculosis (TB), pneumonia, sepsis, a type of infection of the blood, which are now under control. But she is still being observed at the ICU and will yet to wait as to when she will leave ICU and be sent to an ordinary patient room though.

My heart bleeds everytime I see her suffering. This incident has caused my mother, me and my family a lot - emotionally, physically, mentally and all that stuff. I had to ask for all of my relatives' help just to buy my mom her medicine since I already run out of budget and all of my savings are gone for the hospital had to cancel all medicine supplies for my mom since our bill is getting really high and that I have to buy everything that she needs from dextrose, medicines, and all the liquid solutions that she needs while she is in ICU.

I am asking all your help to please pray for my mom and my family. May God help us to get through all this soon enough and help my mom recover completely. Thank you so much for reading. Thank you so much...
