Heart stent to reunite our family together

Hello everyone. I am Jason Needs, 53 years old.

I met my Filipina wife (43 yrs old at present) online almost 9 years ago. It was funny because when I sent her a message '' Hello'', she replied '' We could be friends, No flirting''.

So be it. Because I was also looking for a friend. We became friends for 3 years until we came the best of friends after that year I think. We became closer and closer especially since we both love praying. I love reading the bible to her. The first time I read the bible, she patiently listen to me because it took a bit of a long time for me to read because I have dyslexia. She even encourages me to read more books so I could practice and she also helps me on how to read and spell some words.

After almost 8 years of being best friends... I proposed to her. But before I did that, I asked my son first if it was okay with him, as well as my daughter. They said that they can see the happiness in me whenever I talk to her. And even asked permission from her daughter. So yes. Everybody's happy for our new family.

I visited her in the Philippines, proposed formally, and got married in 2022. I had an amazing stay in the Philippines for a month. After my vacation, we started saving up for their visas ( my wife and my stepdaughter). Because we all want to be together as a family.

Unfortunately, her mom got sick and had surgery. She needed to borrow from the bank and support her mom financially because she was the breadwinner. I know she's having difficulties financially so I tried helping her in any way I can.

Last month, while having a visit to her cousin's house with our daughter and relatives, she had a heart attack. She needed to undergo Angiogram/ Coronary angiography with left heart catheterization. Because of that, she needed to loan from another agency for her hospital bills and medicines. She used her Health Insurance but still the bill is high. And she still needs to undergo a heart stent surgery. I tried to help her as much as I could but I also don't have much because I am having to change my job which gives me fewer hours until I find a full-time job. Don't get me wrong but I am a very hard-working and responsible person. I could do all the jobs that my employer assigns me but because of my dyslexia, it's not easy to find a high-paying job I am still trying my best to get a better job.

If she's only in the UK, everything about her medical and surgery would be free. Now her vision is getting blurry also because of diabetes. My wife told me, '' Hon, God won't let me die yet, right? Because He promised me that I will be with my family. You and the kids. We still have to build a wonderful Christian Community''. Because we are called to be pastors of a church.

So, I am begging you brothers and sisters to please help us to reach our goal, so I could bring my wife and my daughter here for my wife's heart stent and medical bills. In this way, my family will finally be reunited and my wife's health with be more stable. I am humbly knocking on your hearts to please help and support us. God bless everyone.
