00:00 A resident of Zamboanga, Cebu, is the one who is asking for help in our program
00:05 so that they can continue the treatment of their mother who has various kinds of illness.
00:11 They don't know where they will get the money to buy the medicine for their mother.
00:18 Let's watch their story.
00:22 In September 2019, the 79-year-old Erlinda Eran was first confined.
00:30 According to the program of her daughter, Julie,
00:33 they brought her mother to the hospital because of her recurrent illness.
00:39 In 2019, before my mother was brought to the hospital,
00:43 her whole body was sick.
00:46 Her skin was weak, her teeth were swollen, and her teeth were always rashes.
01:01 According to the doctor who examined Erlinda,
01:04 her symptoms are a urinary tract infection.
01:09 Erlinda also spent three days in the hospital before she was discharged.
01:15 The doctor gave her various medicines that she needed to take.
01:20 But after three months,
01:23 Erlinda had an accident and her head hit the cement.
01:31 She fell in our bathroom.
01:35 She hit two containers of water.
01:41 Our water tank was leaking.
01:47 Instead of taking her to the doctor,
01:49 they took her mother to the hospital first.
01:54 But after a week,
01:56 they found Erlinda at the corner of their house and she couldn't speak.
02:03 When I told her that she couldn't speak,
02:10 she couldn't walk properly,
02:15 we brought her to the hospital.
02:18 According to the specialist who examined Erlinda's condition,
02:21 she had various illnesses.
02:24 The diagnosis was lacunar stroke.
02:29 We brought her to the medical center in Sambuanga.
02:34 She was diagnosed with diabetes.
02:39 She also had UTI.
02:42 Now, Erlinda continues to take her medicines
02:47 and she continues to fight her symptoms.
02:51 They are asking for help from Malasakit at Work
02:54 so that they can continue taking their mother's medicines.
02:59 We hope you can help us.
03:02 We need financial assistance to check up on my mother
03:06 and to add more medicines.
03:09 We called earlier on Malasakit at Work,
03:12 Congressman Rodolfo Ordanez.
03:14 He has a Senior Citizens Party list
03:16 to bring Erlinda's mother's problem closer.
03:19 According to him, he will ask for financial assistance
03:23 for Erlinda's mother to take her medicines.
03:27 He can't answer right now
03:29 because he is in a committee hearing in the Chamber.
03:33 But for now, we thank you for your support.
03:37 We thank Congressman Ordanez for his early assistance.
03:44 For those who want to join our program,
