Ryzza M. Igno, Age 7, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia (ALL)
The child is the youngest among the 3 children. Ryzza must get monthly chemotherapy along with the maintenance medicine for which the parents could hardly provide. The father has no stable job despite aggressive job applications. The mother sells Sampaguita-necklace to get by with the family’s daily needs.
On January 20, 2021, Ryzza was very happy to receive the medical assistance fund for her chemotherapy and maintenance medicine, as well as a big box of formula milk, supplements, fresh fruits, Chummy Chum stuff toy, coloring books set with crayons, one month supply of grocery items for the whole family, and cash that they can use whichever way it could serve them best.
