An ex-PBA player is in dire need of help.

Roider Cabrera was rushed to to the hospital once again, dealing with a suspected heart condition.

According to a post on his Facebook page, Cabrera had difficulty in breathing on Friday, July 11, prompting his family to bring him to a hospital in Laguna.

“He’s been really weak, barely sleeping, and in constant pain. The doctors found an infection in his lungs, and now he’s being referred to a cardiologist because they suspect something might be wrong with his heart again,” the post read.

Now, the family is in need of financial assistance to help defray the cost for angiogram, and possibly angioplasty that could amount to over a million pesos.

Back in 2021, the former Terrafirma cager was also left in a vegetative state after collapsing following a PBA 3x3 game at the Ynares Sports Arena in Pasig.

He was later discharged after a lengthy stay at the hospital and has slowly showed progress in recovery.

A couple of years later, his family is reaching out and knocking on people’s kind hearts once again to help them in this plight.

“Right now, our family is emotionally and financially overwhelmed. We’re humbly asking for help—whether through prayers, sharing this post, or any amount you can spare. Every little bit means the world to us,” the same post read.

“Thank you so much in advance for your kindness and support. We just want Roider to get the care he needs and bring him back home safe.”
