An Appeal for Claude Wayne S. Fuentivilla

To All ACM-VAI Brothers:

May the grace and peace be yours in full measure!

The anxiety and stress that we are now suffering is immeasurable. And it makes us sad to think the condition of our child struggling to survive. Our son Claude Wayne S. Fuentivilla has a complex congenital heart disease. The physicians predicted that he will live only up to six months the most, but through God’s mercy, until now he is still alive and two years and 4 months old already. Last April 2005, he was hospitalized for three weeks at Iloilo St. Paul’s Hospital due to pneumonia and meningitis. We thought it was the end of his borrowed life here on earth. But God is indeed a Merciful and Loving God!

Due to his critical condition our physician advised us for an immediate operation in Manila preferably at Philippine Heart Center and is requiring us to prepare a reasonable budget close to Four Hundred Thousand Pesos (P400,000) for the first operation. Since his case is not the usual and ordinary congenital problem he is required to undergo various heart surgeries.

In this regard, we are appealing to your generosity to help us extend the life of our son through your financial assistance. As parents it is beyond one’s understanding that we will do everything just to let our child live whatever ways and means it takes even if it will be of immense burden and will result to ridiculous comments on our part.

The schedule for his operation will be this November 2006 since the attending surgeon is now in the States. He will be back last week of October here in Manila.

Again, We are humbly begging from you whatever help you can extend to help us in this very depressing stage of our life. We know you can understand our feelings because you too are parents and guardians.

We do hope for your love and compassion.

With Our Sincerest Gratitude,
Reynaldo and Nora Fuentivilla
