Blogging for Bunso Jessa's mom

Pictured here is Bunso Jessa's mom. Bunso Jessa is a World Sisters United Director living in a squatters village in Manila, Philippines. Her mom has been having blackouts for over a year now and has been advised by the doctors to get a cat scan to find out what is causing the blackouts. This woman has an important role to play as she has eleven children to take care of. She is an amazingly friendly and kind person. I meet her whenever I go to the Philippines for production workshops and our World Sisters United nomadic summits where we go to each of our 8 chapters and teach how to make documentary films and learn ways to better our lives. So please send a dollar now to help us fund a cat scan for this great soul who deserves to see her family grow up. We are also trying to help build out this families house, which is the most pathetic house I have seen where 13 people live. Please help us now. The cat scan costs 6000 peso. (US$140). Please give as much as you can. She had a blackout just yesterday so this is an urgent request. Please contact me at larriji@gmail.com for further information. Or if you are a medical practitioner in Manila who can help. Thank you and God Bless.

Please help us to raise the funds for a cat scan now!
