Dear friends and loved ones,
I pray that this letter finds you well. I am writing to appeal for your help. It was in February of this year when I felt a bump on the right side of my neck. I was then employed in a company in Manila. A single mother and new in the job, I had to delay going to the doctor, hoping that it was nothing serious. But one Sunday in February I consulted with Dr. Jun Javelosa, a cardiologist from the same church that I am attending. He suggested that I see a doctor and have a biopsy procedure done just to be sure.
It was only late July that I went to see a doctor and had the needle biopsy procedure done. The cytopathology report came back with the diagnosis: Positive for malignant cells, Carcinoma of the Thyroid. (attached herewith is the scanned copy of the report)
I have checked with three doctors and they are all saying the same thing. I had the CT Scan and ultrasound of the thyroid done today and the doctors confirmed that I have three cancer tumors on the left side of my neck and two on the right side.
My prayer is that the Lord will touch your heart even as this letter reaches you. I am in need of financial help right now because of my circumstance. I was advised by my doctor to quit my job and to do everything that I need to do. The next step is the excision of the tumors and the doctor wants to have it done the soonest possible time, the latest is next week.
I am trusting that the Lord will speak to your hearts and keep me in your prayer from this time as I prepare for surgery up to chemotherapy treatment and through recuperation. Despite the reality of this illness, I remain hopeful that the Lord will see me through.
In Christ alone,
Debbie Marie Agbulos-Lopez
