Colostomy
Child's Name: Lloyd Siarot
Age: 8 years old
Address: Dump site, white Road Inayawan, Cebu City, Philippines
Parents Names: Victorio Siarot Jr. [Father], Karen Tabar siarot [Mother]
Parents Occupation: Necklacer [part-time], Shell craft [seasonal]
Medical Case: Colostomy
A colostomy is a surgical procedure that involves connecting a part of the colon onto the anterior abdominal wall, leaving the patient with an opening on the abdomen called a stoma. In a colostomy, the stoma is formed from the end of the large intestine, which is drawn out through the incision and sutured to the skin. After a colostomy, feces leave the patient's body through the abdomen. A colostomy may be permanent or temporary, depending on the reasons for its use.
Llyod History: [Sorry for my grammar]
He was born without hole in his anus and at age 5 [two years ago], someone sponsored for his surgery to make a hole in his anus at City Hospital in Cebu. Several brethren and friends help bought the medicines. Making a hole in his anus is the first surgery. Now, as shown in the picture the boy has some plastered on his side, that's where he spit out his dirt when he needed to.
The family has a member of 6 kids, Lloyd is grade 2 now, Elementary. His parents lived in a Dump Site [where the city throw all the garbage] area of Cebu City. Two of our house church network named Kenneth and Cerillo lived within the community ministering to the needy people. As Kenneth describes his network as 'he does not have a house church but what he does is a whole community became his house church.' Every morning people come to his house and have coffee together. His wife, which is pregnant, Rhean, does a lot of teaching the children every day.
Kenneth, see his whole story of why he ended up to this place here: http://urbanchurchplanters.blogspot.com/
The operation:
The estimated cost to get the job done for the boy to be normal is $1000. This includes all laboratories before and after the surgery, medical bills and medicines after the surgery.
The boy has [4] four doctors attending him with different specialties. They are Dr. Uy, Dr. Taalim, Dr. Umurbida, and Dr. Arenaso. One of them is his pediatrics.
Along with the [2] two church planters we have and I, will accompany the boy with his parents in the whole process of the operation. Updates, pictures, and receipts will be sent if requested.
Ten People?
10 people for a $100 each can help the boy. Or $50 for twenty people?
The pictures was taken this afternoon, today February 14, 2009
