00:00Do you still remember JL?
00:05The kid who was always lying down because his tummy was so big?
00:10Thank you so much for your help.
00:14Because a month after we found him,
00:18here he is now.
00:21Like many kids now,
00:23JL has been fond of tiktok for 5 years.
00:27Anyone can fall in love with his big smile.
00:37But JL, in the past few months,
00:40he slowly stopped dancing.
00:44Their noisy house is now surrounded by the sound of silence.
00:51The sound that you can hear here is the sound of his tummy popping.
01:02JL's tummy is now bulging.
01:07But his tummy is almost popping.
01:14You can also see the roots here.
01:18With his weight of 15 kilos,
01:25it's hard for JL to move.
01:29That's why the kid is always lying on the floor.
01:34Mama!
01:37Mama!
01:39I don't want to go home!
01:42To help him feel better,
01:45and to get rid of the air in his tummy,
01:49he keeps popping.
01:54I'm helping JL to feel better.
01:58But will he be able to get rid of the air in his tummy?
02:02What is he carrying?
02:20Here in the town of Dinas, in Zamboanga del Sur,
02:23with his mother, Laini, and father, James,
02:26JL is staying.
02:28He's just lying down when he eats.
02:32Ouch!
02:35The baby is now 3 weeks old.
02:39He has been feeling better since he was born.
02:43But he's still not used to the environment.
02:46He's not used to the water.
02:48He's not used to the water.
02:50He's not used to the water.
02:52He's not used to the water.
02:56Ouch!
03:12He's not used to the water.
03:21He's not used to the water.
03:25He's not used to the water.
03:32Ouch!
03:33He's not used to the water.
03:38It's a good thing that he has a big tummy,
03:41but he's still hungry.
03:43When James was still a baby, he didn't have food.
03:46Sometimes, we didn't have anything to eat.
03:50JL also didn't go to school.
03:53Mama, how long will I be like this?
03:57Who will take care of him when we grow old?
04:04What is our fault?
04:06Why did our son become like this?
04:10What is our fault?
04:12Why are we being punished?
04:16We are afraid that he might lose us.
04:20We love our son very much.
04:23As a mother, I will do everything I can.
04:33JL is usually at the door.
04:36He says that this is the only way for him to be free from the outside world.
04:43According to the doctor who examined the child just last year,
04:46he has Hirschsprung's disease.
04:49It's a congenital disease.
04:51There are some roots that are connected to the brain,
04:55and some other areas that have to be removed.
04:58He is not a good doctor.
05:00He is not a good doctor.
05:02He is not a good doctor.
05:04He is not a good doctor.
05:07He is not a good doctor.
05:09It's a congenital disease.
05:11There's a root in the colon
05:13that hasn't developed since she was a child.
05:17She can't get out of it, she can't save it.
05:21The doctor said that she needs an operation.
05:24To help her daughter's operation,
05:28Laini went to a house in Manila.
05:34But she also had to go back to them.
05:39I went home because my daughter's condition is critical.
05:44It hurts.
05:53I feel so bad.
05:56Why did I leave my daughter?
05:59She said,
06:00Mom, you can't go back because I missed you.
06:07It hurts so much because I left my daughter
06:11and I'm taking care of another child.
06:30Because her condition is critical,
06:33our team sent JL for a check-up.
06:52In the X-ray, her colon is very large.
06:55Half of her stomach is filled with air.
06:57And on the other side,
06:59there's a lot of dirt that hasn't come out yet.
07:03To fix JL's colon,
07:05she needs an operation.
07:07It's a bit complicated.
07:09Her colon is very large.
07:13Viewers,
07:14if you want to donate,
07:16please donate for your daughter's operation.
07:21We love her so much.
07:24We can't lose hope.
07:34After JL's story was aired on KMJS,
07:38the help from the R.H.U.
07:41or the Rural Health Unit of Dinas
07:44was sent to a bigger hospital in Zamboanga City
07:48for almost 8 hours.
07:53It was our first time that we encountered a case
07:56of Hirschsprung's disease that's severe.
07:58JL is also a high-risk patient.
08:00If she doesn't get a check-up at that time,
08:03JL can really die.
08:07JL needs to undergo 3 more operations.
08:12But first, she needs to get stronger.
08:17We had to do daily irrigation.
08:19We will insert a catheter in her stomach
08:22to help get the dirt and air out of her colon.
08:28After almost a month,
08:30JL underwent her first surgery.
08:34We did a double-barrel colostomy,
08:36so we removed her large intestine.
08:39That's where the dirt was.
08:41I was afraid that JL would lose her life.
08:45That's what we couldn't do.
08:50How are you?
08:51I'm fine.
08:52How are you?
08:53I'm fine.
08:55How is the child?
08:59Our team moved to Pagadian, Zamboanga del Sur
09:03to check on JL,
09:05who was featured on our show 9 months ago
09:09because of her colon disease.
09:12Because of bad weather in the past few days,
09:15the road to Barangay Dungos
09:19is difficult.
09:22It's raining here.
09:24Before, the road was narrower,
09:28but now it's longer
09:30because we have to go through rough roads.
09:33We need a four-wheel-drive vehicle,
09:36a 4x4.
09:37The road is bad.
09:39Half an hour later,
09:41on our way to Bakubakongdaan,
09:46we arrived at their neighboring barangay.
09:52This is their house, JL.
09:55Hello, good morning.
09:57Thank you for coming.
10:01Where is JL?
10:03Hello.
10:04Hello, JL.
10:07JL is so handsome.
10:11The child was just a kid when she fell in her trap.
10:22Now that she is able to stand,
10:24her first surgery was a success.
10:28That's why her stomach shrank.
10:31Thank you for sharing your story with us,
10:35especially with JL.
10:37Because of that,
10:39many people were inspired by her story.
10:42That's why many people helped.
10:44What does JL do now that she couldn't do before?
10:48Where did she go?
10:49She went to my mom.
10:50Is she able to walk?
10:51Yes, she is able to walk.
10:53And then?
10:54She plays now.
10:56She used to just lie down, right?
10:58It's a cute house.
11:00She is tall.
11:02Handsome, handsome, handsome.
11:05Yes.
11:06Her smile is beautiful.
11:08It's different from before.
11:10What did the doctor say?
11:11When we came back, she didn't recognize us anymore.
11:14Really?
11:15Yes.
11:16She said,
11:17she fell down.
11:18The doctors were happy.
11:25What was your reaction when you saw the story
11:28that we told in our program?
11:31We cried.
11:32Many people helped us even though we didn't know them.
11:35They helped us,
11:36they sent us for JL's surgery.
11:39Even the OFWs are happy.
11:42Yes.
11:44Thank you so much.
11:46When we went to JL's,
11:48we were brought to the hospital for 5 days.
11:51We were operated for 2 or 3 weeks.
11:57When we arrived at the operating room,
11:59the doctor told us that JL is 50 years old.
12:02We cried.
12:03We felt sorry for her.
12:05We were scared.
12:06She said,
12:07we shouldn't cry because JL is 50 years old.
12:11She said,
12:12we shouldn't cry because JL can handle her surgery.
12:15She said,
12:16you're so brave.
12:17She encouraged us.
12:20She encouraged us.
12:22JL's surgery lasted for almost 2 hours.
12:31After a few days,
12:33JL was discharged
12:35and was hospitalized.
12:38I will clean JL's intestines.
12:45The best thing about this is,
12:46because JL's old illness is coming back,
12:50she can go to school for the next term.
12:53Grade 1 or Kinder?
12:54Kinder.
12:55She will go to Kinder.
12:56Yes.
12:57What did you pray for in July
12:59when JL's condition got worse?
13:02We prayed that she will get better.
13:06Did God listen to your prayers?
13:09Yes.
13:10I'm so happy that she will get better.
13:13Thank God,
13:14because we were scared.
13:16Because of JL's help,
13:18not only did the child's health get better,
13:21but also the whole family's life.
13:26In the past,
13:27JL was always at the doorstep.
13:30Now,
13:31This is our room.
13:34JL's room?
13:36Yes.
13:37This is our bathroom.
13:39We didn't have a bathroom before.
13:41We didn't have a bathroom.
13:42Because of their help,
13:45they now have a pigsty.
13:47What is this?
13:48Yes.
13:49There are children.
13:50There are children.
13:51How many children?
13:52This one.
13:53And a small Sarisari store.
13:56How is the income?
13:57It's okay, ma'am.
13:58The income from the store is okay.
14:01It's big.
14:02It's big.
14:03It's big.
14:05Our team also accompanied JL
14:07for her follow-up check-up.
14:10We're going to do all our laboratories
14:12to check if her status is okay.
14:14If there are still feces inside,
14:17we will remove it.
14:19Okay.
14:20After that,
14:21we will schedule her for her next operation.
14:24But her next two operations,
14:27is it simple?
14:28It's simple.
14:29She can do the first one.
14:31She can do the second one.
14:32The third one.
14:33What's the third one?
14:34The closure of her nose.
14:35So, it's simple?
14:36Yes.
14:38Pull the rectum
14:39until the large intestine goes down.
14:41And that will become the new anus.
14:44Because the portion below
14:46has no nerves.
14:47That's what we're going to remove.
14:48Hopefully, we can do it
14:50before Christmas.
14:51After Christmas,
14:52she will be operated on for the second stage.
14:54The third stage is the closure of colostomy.
14:56Once we complete the three surgeries,
14:59or three stages of our surgery,
15:01she will be back to normal.
15:09She's not crying anymore,
15:10like before,
15:11when we were knocking on her.
15:13She's not crying anymore.
15:14Do you need help
15:15for JL?
15:17We don't have expenses in the hospital.
15:19Oh, you don't?
15:21Thank you so much
15:23for helping us.
15:28What advice can you give
15:30to other parents
15:31who have serious problems?
15:34Don't lose hope.
15:36Like us,
15:37we didn't expect
15:39what happened to our daughter.
15:42She's okay now.
15:43Ask God for help
15:45because He will help us.
15:47She's listening.
15:48She's listening.
15:49She's okay now.
15:51Ask God for help now.
15:53Thank you for helping me
15:55because I'm paralyzed.
15:57Mom,
15:58I'm paralyzed.
16:01JL is just one
16:02of many of our countrymen
16:04who are in faraway places
16:06and need urgent medical help.
16:16I hope that the day will come
16:18when everyone will be given
16:20help and action
16:22and not just those
16:24who will share
16:26their stories
16:27with the public.
