In Barangay San Roque, Koronadal City, a story of both joy and struggle is unfolding. Pastor Jershon Balandan Galas and his wife, a former teacher at Green Valley College, recently welcomed a rare blessing—quadruplets. But what should have been a celebration has turned into a battle for survival, as all four babies were born premature and are now confined in incubators at Dr. Arturo P. Pingoy Medical Center.
The couple, who originally planned to have only one child, were shocked when doctors revealed they were expecting four. They now call their babies a “miracle from God,” but this miracle comes with challenges. According to doctors, the medical costs for premature quadruplets could reach millions of pesos due to the intensive care needed for their growth and recovery.
Today, the mother of the quadruplets is set to be discharged. While the local government has pledged to provide financial aid under the Bulig sa Kubos Program, the looming hospital bills and continuing care of the infants far exceed what the family can shoulder.
With faith and hope, the Galas family is appealing to kindhearted individuals, organizations, and government agencies to extend help. Every peso counts in ensuring the survival of their children.
For those willing to help, donations may be sent through the GCash number of the mother of the quadruplets: 0946-662-5752.
The Galas family believes that with the generosity of others, their four little miracles will have the chance to grow strong and healthy. In their words, “Ang bawat tulong ay malaking biyaya upang matiyak ang kaligtasan ng aming mga anak.”
