00:00In Masbate, there is a 92-year-old old man who is preparing for his death.
00:10He is the one who is making his Ataol.
00:16From the outside of this old Sari-Sari store,
00:20noticeably, there is no more content.
00:23Except for the box that is displayed here.
00:32I'm not sure what's inside.
00:34But it's not a simple box.
00:37Because when you open it,
00:39you will find that it is one...
00:42a coffin.
00:46When I walk there, I don't want to look because I'm scared.
00:49I'm scared.
00:50When I walk there, I don't want to look because I'm scared.
00:54This is not a funeral.
00:56There is no coffin here either.
00:58So, what is this coffin for?
01:02This is a coffin for a funeral.
01:07It's my own.
01:09Some people say,
01:10it's a grave.
01:11It's a grave.
01:13It's a grave.
01:14It's a grave.
01:17This is the story of the life and preparation for the death of 92-year-old Lolo Sayling.
01:34Here in Palanas, Masbate,
01:36Lolo Sayling is the only one who is still alive.
01:39He is the grandfather who prepared a coffin.
01:44When I was young,
01:45I always wanted to build a platform.
01:47But I was too lazy.
01:52Have you tried going inside?
01:54Yes.
01:58I'm not afraid anymore.
02:00I'm used to it.
02:02I'm used to it.
02:03I'm used to it.
02:04I'm used to it.
02:05I'm used to it.
02:06I'm used to it.
02:07I'm used to it.
02:08I'm used to it.
02:09I'm used to it.
02:10I'm used to it.
02:11I don't know if I can do it anymore.
02:13I don't think I can do it anymore.
02:18That's why the materials are very strong.
02:20It was made from mahogany.
02:22Lolo Parao himself planted it.
02:25I asked Nena Kahoy.
02:27She was in her thirties.
02:29When I asked,
02:31I immediately thought to myself,
02:33that if I did it,
02:34I'd be able to do a great thing for myself.
02:36She has been planting mahogany for 50 years.
02:38Of course, I would know it.
02:40When I was young, I used to go to the market to buy things for my family.
02:47That's why some of Lolo's neighbors, including teachers and students in front of his school,
02:54are constantly worried whenever he goes out.
02:58I'm really scared.
02:59Until now, I haven't been able to focus or look at his body for a long time.
03:05I didn't know how to handle it because I was the only one who knew how to handle it.
03:11He has a different story, so I decided to vlog it.
03:14I didn't know how to handle it because I was the only one who knew how to handle it.
03:17I didn't know how to handle it.
03:19But why is Lolo Sailing like an advanced thinker?
03:26He said that if he's poor and has a hard life,
03:30it's the same if he dies.
03:33He learned from his experience when he was widowed in 2017.
03:39When my wife and I were released from the prison,
03:42I thought that I would be able to take care of my wife.
03:44I bought this house for P35,000.
03:48So that he wouldn't be burdened by his child, Willie, who has his own family in Manila,
03:54he decided to do this.
03:56I decided to make a coffin.
03:59I will be happy in prison, I will not be sad.
04:02And for those who are wondering how your grandfather could make a coffin,
04:07this is what he has been looking for in the past few decades.
04:11When you were young, how many coffins did you make?
04:15I made a lot of coffins.
04:17And it's not just the coffin that is ready,
04:20he also planned the clothes that he will wear.
04:24My wife and I got married in Amon.
04:27If I die, I will not be able to wear my wedding dress.
04:30Even if I don't want to, I will still wear it.
04:33Even the expenses are already prepared.
04:36The payment for the coffin is already in my pocket.
04:39I just need P15,000.
04:42Even his lot in the cemetery.
04:45What I want is that I will not be burdened by my wife,
04:49my children, and my hero.
04:52Until the song will be played in his coffin,
04:57don't forget the original composition.
05:00I will not sing if I die.
05:03I will not sing if I die.
05:05I will just read.
05:22I will not sing if I die.
05:28I will not sing if I die.
05:33I will not sing if I die.
05:38I will not sing if I die.
05:43I will not sing if I die.
05:49I will not sing if I die.
05:53I will not sing if I die.
05:56I will not sing if I die.
06:00I will not sing if I die.
06:04I will not sing if I die.
06:09For now, only one person is killing time, Grandpa Sayling.
06:13Where's Willie?
06:15He's sleeping.
06:18In order to ease his anger towards his son,
06:21he's still calling Alona on his cell phone.
06:25I'm calling Tata Sayling right away
06:27so that I can reach the messages from her.
06:36I'm just going home.
06:38I don't have any friends.
06:40Grandpa Sayling's clarity.
06:42I'm going home.
06:44I'm going home.
06:46I'm going home.
06:48I don't have any friends.
06:50I'm going home.
06:52I left home to work in Manila
06:54and to support my family.
06:56If I had two bodies,
06:58I would have left one here.
07:00I'm really sad.
07:02Of course,
07:07I miss my family.
07:09I miss my family.
07:13When I finish school,
07:15I will go to the hospital.
07:17I will go to the hospital.
07:19I will go to the hospital.
07:21I will go to the hospital.
07:25In order for Grandpa Sayling not to feel any pain,
07:29this Thursday, we had him checked up.
07:32Grandpa Sayling, at the age of 92,
07:34had no other problems with his body
07:36other than his hypertension.
07:38It's a good thing that he was checked up
07:40because we found out that his blood pressure is really high.
07:43We will give him medicine as maintenance
07:46so that he can really control his BP.
07:48I was told not to come back.
07:50I don't want to come back.
07:51They ask for financial assistance
07:53from us at the OSCA office,
07:55for checks, booklets, medicines,
07:57and busy commodity tests.
07:58While the local government is giving him money,
08:01there is also a gift for him.
08:03Surprise!
08:05This is a gift from the OSCA office.
08:07This is a small gift from us to you.
08:10Please accept it, Dad.
08:12This is for you.
08:14This is a gift.
08:15I will never forget it.
08:17I will never forget it.
08:18I will never forget it.
08:20And so that he can talk to his son, Willie,
08:24whenever he wants,
08:26he was given our program
08:28with his own cell phone.
08:30I don't want to use my cell phone.
08:32I will never forget it.
08:33I will never forget it.
08:34This is a gift from the OSCA office.
08:37Lolo Sailing immediately made a video call
08:40to his son and grandchildren.
08:42Hello, Willie.
08:43Hello, Uncle. How are you?
08:44I will never forget my cell phone.
08:46I will never forget it.
08:48I will never forget my cell phone.
08:50I will never forget it.
08:51I will never forget it.
08:52I don't have any budget.
08:53I will never forget it.
08:54I will never forget it.
08:55I will never forget it.
08:56I will never forget it.
08:57What he doesn't know is that
08:59we have another surprise for him.
09:02From Manila, we sent Willie home
09:05to visit his father, Sailing.
09:12You're getting old.
09:14I'm not old.
09:19You're getting old.
09:22You're getting old.
09:24Yes, I'm getting old.
09:25I'm getting old.
09:32I'm very thankful that you're getting old.
09:40I want to cry.
09:43I want to cry.
09:44I really want to cry.
09:48Of course, I'm happy.
09:50I'm happy.
09:52I'm hurt.
09:53I had an accident and I had to do that.
09:56But I told them many years ago that God is the one who will take care of me.
09:59My mother cried, so I left home.
10:02But I had no problem with that.
10:04I sat with my wife and my daughter.
10:08Oh, is your daughter the eldest daughter of Joanne?
10:14I forgot.
10:16What are you doing?
10:18What are you doing?
10:20You're going to fall!
10:22Oh, that's why.
10:24You're going to fall!
10:29You're going to fall!
10:31I want to continue my life in Dubai, in Kalimantan.
10:50I want to live in Kalimantan.
10:54I don't want to get sick.
10:57I want to live here.
10:59If I get sick, I'll sing to my wife.
11:06I'll say, I'm going to die.
11:10You're not afraid to live, but you're afraid to die.
11:15So you have to live fully and wholeheartedly.
11:19So that, at any time, you're ready to die.
