00:00In the tragedy, the field trip of students and teachers went home

00:06when their school bus was hit by lightning in Bangkok, Thailand.

00:10Less than 23 people were injured.

00:13They were not the only ones who were injured in the hospital.

00:16The Deputy Prime Minister of Thailand ordered the Police Chief

00:20to speed up the identification process

00:22so that the victims can go home to their hometown.

00:27The fire station was also investigated.

00:37It's bitter for a farmer who paralyzed his hand

00:41when he was plowing the field.

00:43But for a painter who has a lot of hair,

00:46it was proven that even if he is hit by a car,

00:49he can still use a sweet...

00:51Success!

00:57These works of Fernando Cavite will be full of life.

01:01He has been painting for more than five decades,

01:03whether on canvas or wood.

01:05But the road to his success was not easy

01:09because of the bitter experience.

01:11Fernando was only 13 years old when he started painting.

01:15Over the years,

01:17he has a career in cinema, advertising, and teaching.

01:22But in 1999,

01:25he was struck by a stroke

01:27and his body became paralyzed.

01:29On the other hand,

01:31he was able to use his right hand in painting.

01:33I saw how hard it was for him.

01:35Sometimes I would come home from teaching,

01:39he would cry

01:41because it was so simple.

01:43Why is it so hard to do?

01:47But Fernando never stopped painting.

01:52I insisted on painting

01:58using my left hand.

02:03I would do it,

02:05but it was so hard.

02:09I put plywood on top of the wheelchair,

02:13and then I gave him a lapis on his left hand,

02:19and he would rotate the paper.

02:22After two years,

02:24his works were displayed in other countries.

02:28And until now,

02:30there are still exhibits.

02:33They are all Filipino subjects,

02:37and mostly countryside,

02:40local life.

02:43That's why when he exhibited in the UN,

02:47he was thanked by his fellow Filipinos

02:50who worked there

02:52because he painted the Philippines so beautifully.

02:58He also continued to share his knowledge

03:00with other students.

03:02He would give comments about our paintings,

03:05and he would joke with us.

03:09This exhibit will be more popular

03:11for the students

03:13because they learned from Mr. Cabigting

03:16about techniques in painting

03:18and it's a learning experience for them.

03:24Fernando Cabigting is an example of perseverance

03:28that even if you get sick,

03:30you can still achieve success.

03:36It's a very inspiring story.

03:38Super inspiring.

03:40No matter how much I practice,

03:42I can't do it with my right hand.

03:45It's a story of hope.

03:47And Kapuso,

03:49it's almost Christmas.
