CHILD WATCH: Bantay-Bata 163

Dear Alex et al:

Could you please give me the email address of Mr. Rey Fuentivilla or give him my email address so we could start corresponding. Bantay Bata do have its medical assistance, we could provide on the child's medical needs specially on his medicines but not the hospital bill and professional fee of the doctor/s, however, we could arrange for him a referral to PCSO because I have batchmates who works inside. If you could also convince Mr. Rey to make an appeal on the National TV via The Filipino Channel (TFC) so we could get funds from donors to fund his child's medical needs. Do they have a place to stay here in Manila?

Kuya Alex, musta ka na, how's your baby and wife? Padre Kiko...saw from the trail of this email Fr. Ed Jocson's name, is he an ex- Vincentian? is if he is, could I have his email address, I've been meaning to contact him. I will wait for your friends' email.

Dear Mr. Fuentivilla:

I am May Iranta, better half of Roy. I've just received today trails of emails from your SVS-VHS group specifically from my hubby, alex and el kiko. I am working here in Bantay Bata 163 and we have in our program, the medical assistance for children between 0-12 years old. We also have a Bantay Bata branch in Iloilo located in the ABS-CBN Regional Station in Jaro. One of our staff who is working with us is an ex-vincentian too, Elly Aliliran, perhaps you could get in touch with him at (003)320-7423. Or you could give a call to Grace Solinap our OIC in BB Iloilo if you have any clarfications on our medical requirements listed below.

We would want to help Claude in his medicines and laboratory exams. We will refer you to the Social Service Department of the Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office (PCSO) to help augment for the hospital bills that you will incur.

Treatment for CHD is very expensive and our medical assistance has also its limit. However, if you wish to air the story of Claude over National TV, we could probably raise funds for him and somehow cover his medical needs.

In order for us to further assess and facilitate the help that we can possibly provide the patient, we would require submission of the following documents, as soon as you arrive here in Manila.

(1) Medical Abstract / Certificate
(2) Medical Social Service Referral
(3) DSWD Referral
(4) Barangay Certificate
(5) Picture of the patient
(6) Prescriptions of the medicines needed (latest is 1 week period)

You can visit Bantay Bata 163 located at Mother Ignacia St. Quezon City or you can call me at 415-6309 or 0917-8554920. Schedule of receiving patients seeking medical assistance: Monday, Wednesday and Friday 8:00am to 12 nn only.

Thank you very much.
