Nurse, tumulong sa pagpapaanak sa kapwa Pinoy
sa loob ng eroplano
Pinuri ng netizens ang isang nurse mula Bacolod City
matapos niyang ibahagi ang kuwento ng kaniyang
pagtulong sa isang Pilipinang nanganak sa loob ng
eroplano. Kuwento ng nurse na si Francis Dominic
Mendoza, sakay sila ng eroplano Martes ng madaling
araw nang nangyari ang insidente. Mula Doha, Qatar
ang eroplano at pauwi sila ng Pilipinas. Sa bandang
Thailand nag-labor ang Pilipinang kaniyang tinulungan.
Dagdag pa ni Mendoza, tinulungan niya ang mga
Pilipinong cabin crew para ligtas na maisilang ang
sanggol. Ginamit nila ang first aid kit sa eroplano at iba
pang improvised na gamit. Nag-emergency landing ang
eroplano sa Bangkok para mabigyan ng medical
attention ang ina at ang sanggol. Ani Mendoza, bahagi
ng kaniyang responsibilidad ang pagtulong sa mga
nangangailangan kahit sa labas ng ospital.
Nagtatrabaho bilang nurse si Mendoza sa Ireland.
Gerald Anderson joins Typhoon Carina rescue efforts
As Metro Manila is put under a state of calamity due
to Typhoon Carina, joint efforts are being made to
ensure rescue operations are underway.
Earlier today, July 24, 2024, a video on X (formerly
Twitter) caught the attention of netizens as
Kapamilya star Gerald Anderson is seen assisting
families in one of the flooded areas in Barangay Sto.
Domingo, Quezon City. In the video, Gerald is
greeting survivors behind the camera, who are
ready to be transported to evacuation sites.
One of these survivors is a weeping boy in a pink
raincoat, who appears reluctant to be moved away
from his mom. Gerald consoles him, asking, "Ano
pangalan [niya]? Sige lang, sasama nanay mo."
"Okay, come here. Halika, halika, hawak ka sa akin.
Okay, let's go. Ako bahala sa yo," he says as he lifts
the child onto a space not captured by the camera.
NURSE HELPS DELIVER A STREET DWELLER’S BABY
Twenty-nine-year-old nurse Mary Lorraine
Pingol was all over the news and social media
recently after helping a woman give birth in
Makati City. She was on her way to work when
she saw a rescue team attending to a street
dweller in labor. "There's no other person to
help them kundi ako at that period of time, kaya
tumulong na ako," she recounted. Diagnosed
with leukemia in 2013, Mary Lorraine fought
through her sickness and pursued her calling.
Her desire to help proved stronger and as she
recently showed, she did not even need to be in
the hospital to serve others.
FREE TAHO FOR FRONTLINERS
Sometimes a warm cup of taho is enough to boost
you for another long, busy day at work. Healthcare
worker Paolo Bianco Villar Bartolo shared with
Bayan Mo, Ipatrol Mo how thankful he and his
colleagues are to taho vendor Rolando Urbina,
who has been giving away the delightful treat for
free to frontliners like him. “Malaking tulong din po
'yung ginagawa ni Kuya Rolando eh kahit paano po
nagkakalaman 'yung tiyan namin bago po kami
magsimula sa duty," he said. As a frontliner, Paolo
and his fellow frontliners are seen as heroes in the
fight against COVID-19. Rolando is a hero on his
own right too, as he goes out of his way to cheer
up workers in Sta. Ana Hospital with taho during
community quarantine
FOOD STOPOVER FOR RIDERS
Without a doubt, delivery riders are among the
unsung heroes during this pandemic. They are
the ones going out to get food and other needs
for people who are staying at home due to the
community quarantine, rain or shine. Wanting
to honor them for their hard work, Anali
Lorraine Mojica and her friends started a “free
food stopover,” offering free lunch and
drinking water to delivery riders in Bangkal,
Makati City. “Yung target namin talaga ay 'yung
masisipag nating delivery riders na tumutulong
sa' tin ngayong lockdown. Kasi dapat pati sila i-
cheer at i-salute natin ngayong may ganito
tayong pandemic," she said.
