00:00Every four weeks of January, the Goiter Awareness Week is held to highlight the importance of early detection or diagnosis of this disease, as well as proper food and nutrition.

00:18The GMA Kapuso Foundation conducted a free screening and there are also operations.

00:25Almost 11 years ago, Jevelyne was diagnosed with a major tumour in her neck due to BOSHO or Goiter.

00:35Jevelyne is a single mother and even though she is having a hard time, she is doing her best to support the medication and her child.

00:45In the morning, she is an assistant in a dental clinic and in the afternoon, she is an extra as a masseuse.

00:53This year, I noticed some changes. She is more active.

00:59I am having a hard time breathing and my sleep is interrupted.

01:09She can't have an operation because she is earning less than Php 480 per day.

01:17Jevelyne is one of the consultants in the free screening of Operation Bukol by the GMA Kapuso Foundation and Jose Memorial Medical Center as a participant in the Goiter Awareness Week.

01:31BOSHO is a feeling in our thyroid gland.

01:36If we have a high thyroid hormone, we have what is called hyperthyroidism.

01:43The opposite of this is hypothyroidism.

01:48She is the one who passed the screening and attended the Goiter Awareness Lecture.

01:54According to the doctor, eating rich in iodine like seafood can help.

02:01Use iodized salt and ask the doctor if she can feel the symptoms.

02:10Iodine deficiency is hereditary. It can come from our mother or father. It can be spontaneous.

02:16The operation of the patients is already scheduled at the Jose Reyes Memorial Medical Center.

02:22To those who want to help in our projects, you can deposit in our bank accounts or send it to Simoana Luwiliere.

02:31It can also be online via GCash, Shopee, Lazada, and Globe Rewards.
