ダバオ市内に点在する癌患者、彼らの治療に役立つ最新の医療機器が、JPローレル通りの脇にあるSouthern Philippines Medical Centerの癌研究所に寄付された。
当施設が実施するHouse of Hopeプログラムを担当するDr. Mae Dolendo氏によると、今回の寄付を通じて眼癌用の放射線療法装置、810nmのダイオード・レーザー、そして網膜カメラが与えられたそうだ。
氏はまた、ミンダナオ内には500人もの子供たちが小児癌を患っており、早期に診断することができれば、治癒できる可能性は高いと述べた。しかし一部の患者は三次医療へのアクセスがなかったり、金銭・社会心理的に苦しい状況に置かれていることから、早期診断が難しくなっているとのことだ。
同氏によれば、以前は放射線療法を受けさせるため、患者を私立施設やタグム市へと輸送していたが、現在は必要な機器が揃ったことから、上述サービスの提供が可能になったそうだ。
Thank you for your continued support of Davao’s portal site “Davaotchi”. “Davaotchi” is an information portal about Davao that has been running for about seven and a half years since September 2016 with the aim of conveying the charms of Davao to Japanese people in Japanese and making them more aware of Davao. Thanks to everyone’s support, we have gained a certain amount of recognition, such as being featured in a magazine, and many people have started to hear the term “Dabaotchi”. On the other hand, we have prioritized the mission of conveying the charms of Davao to as many Japanese people as possible, so there is almost no profitability, and we have allocated the profits generated from other businesses to the site management, but we have no plans for the future. As a result of careful consideration of scalability and development, Davaotchi has decided to recruit supporters who can support Davaotchi in order to better manage the site. We considered charging for the site or introducing a subscription plan, but we wanted to deliver information about Davao to as many people as possible, so we decided to simply ask for support from Davaochi fans first. You can support us using PayPal or credit card (debit card) below. We look forward to your cooperation. See more news articles
