A four-year-old boy from Brgy. Guibuangan, Barili, Cebu is earnestly pleading for urgent financial help to boost his ongoing fight against cancer.
Jest Rylle Gutana was diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia on October 13, 2021. His signs and symptoms started when he experienced fever and unusual paleness three months before his diagnosis. His parents brought him for a check-up at a clinic in their hometown and were prescribed medications but to no avail. A month prior to his diagnosis, he was admitted to a hospital in Carcar City where he was given blood transfusions and was treated for severe anemia.
Jest’s initial chemotherapy began after his diagnosis. His attending physician prescribed a treatment protocol that they will follow for the next three years in order to achieve thorough healing. After his initial treatment, his parents decided to discontinue his chemotherapy because of financial constraints. For seven months, Jest was apparently in good condition until he again exhibited fever, paleness, and bruises on his skin. So, chemotherapy was re-initiated again on May 2022.
Jest is an active and playful boy as described by his mother. He likes to play with his friends. As the youngest of the six siblings, his family treasures him the most. When asked about her wish for Jest, his mother said, “I hope that my child will achieve full recovery from his illness. I want to see him grow up cancer-free.” Jest’s father works as adriver with P300 income every day. His mother, a housewife, takes good care of the family.
