00:00 [Music]
00:04 Within four corners of the room,
00:08 a child's life changed within five years due to his condition.
00:15 Does he have hope of being free from the disease he is facing?
00:19 [Music]
00:23 At the top of this room,
00:25 you can see the tight tie on the door that looks like someone is hiding something.
00:32 But the owner of the house said that no one is hiding anything,
00:36 but they are being careful.
00:40 In this room, the 29-year-old child,
00:44 whose name we will call June, is in jail.
00:48 Within five years,
00:49 the window is the only thing that gives light to the room.
00:54 His parents noticed that he is often alone and speaks to himself.
01:02 So in 2014, he was diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia.
01:10 He really loses his sleep. He falls asleep.
01:16 He also sometimes gets sick and leaves the house.
01:19 Even though he is sick, he helped his son in 2018.
01:24 I bathe him in Mary Hass.
01:27 I am the one who bathes him.
01:30 There is a goodwill that brought June's condition closer to the GMA Kapusu Foundation.
01:36 We immediately asked a psychiatrist in Baguio General Hospital and Medical Center.
01:42 The pain of thinking that he has a disease,
01:49 they cannot tell what the reality is.
01:53 First of all, it is a disease.
01:55 Second, we have what we call an imbalance in our brain chemicals.
02:01 It rises, so there are hallucinations.
02:06 And then lastly, life experiences that are not overcome.
02:13 Prisoning a patient with this condition does not help.
02:18 Because this disease does not have a treatment.
02:23 It only has a medicine to reduce its symptoms.
02:28 But it really needs maintenance.
02:32 June was admitted to a hospital to monitor his condition and to be given the right medicine.
02:39 The doctor also reminded him that if he saw a relative with this symptom,
02:45 he should immediately bring him to a specialist so that he can be rushed and not to leave.
02:50 That's all.
02:52 Thank you.
