What if you were unable to afford the medical attention she needs?

What if you had your hands tied while you watched her suffer, knowing there was nothing you can do?

Chesca was a healthy and happy little girl, until one day she fell, causing the rapid development of a tumor, which is now the size of a cantaloupe.

Chesca August 2014

In a matter of a few short months, Chesca has gone from a healthy happy little girl, enjoying princesses and the movie “Frozen” to a little girl with the rare cancer, “Ewing’s Sarcoma,” and the weight of the world (almost literally) on her shoulders.

Chesca lives with her older brother and two loving parents in Pampanga, Philippines. I received several emails about Chesca in the past. Then, last Saturday, I received a picture that showed the urgency of her situation. This time, I knew this child needed more than prayers. She needed a miracle.

We quickly added her to our sponsorship program and took the lead on finding her medical attention. With the help of Facebook communities of people affected by Ewing’s Sarcoma, we found a doctor in Manila to take her under his care.

Chesca’s battle has only begun. The cancer not only shows its ugliness through its cantaloupe size tumor, but it has spread to her lungs. As Chesca faces her greatest battle, Maya’s Hope is gathering all of its forces to create an army of Chesca Warriors. If you would like to help Chesca, you can join our Crowdrise page.
