I have made so many on-line virtual friends over the years. Some I feel very close to even though we have never met. There is one particular friend that I feel so helpless, other than giving words of encouragement. She has something wrong with her liver and she is in constant pain. She lives in the Philippines and apparently there are no "emergency care" programs there. She needs some meds but she can't afford them right now. She wants to give up on life All, I can do is pray for her and support her, but I just feel so helpless

I feel helpless too when I heard my online friends have lots of financial problems. That's usually the time how I wish I am wealthy to be able to help them.

I feel bad to hear that. I think your friend can ask support from government agency in my country. There is an agency that can provide assistance for her health condition.

Does she has access to ginger roots, she could boil some slices in some water for about, 15 minutes and that drink the water only. It help the liver to regenarate, and for digestion....Please ask her...
