00:11especially those who are afraid of the so-called medical expenses.
00:16Let the Department of Health remind you that there are free medicines available in health centers.
00:22Your GMA Kapusu Foundation is ready to help.
00:26According to the Department of Health, there are more than 100 cases of bronchial asthma,
00:35or HICA, reported from December 21, 2024 to January 6, 2025
00:43from the eight Sentinel Hospitals monitored by the agency.
00:48One of the main reasons is the heavy smoke from fireworks during the New Year celebration.
00:56This is a sign of allergens, difficulty breathing, or shortness of breath and shortness of breath.
01:03Volcanic ash can also cause asthma.
01:08So for those who live near the volcano Canlaon and Taal,
01:12it is advisable to wear a face mask when the volcanoes erupt.
01:19You will have what is called anthracosis.
01:21The silica will go to your lungs and it will be permanently trapped there.
01:28Later on in life, it can cause chronic pulmonary disease.
01:33These diseases are now monitored by the DOH, including tuberculosis or TB.
01:41The agency has projects for this, such as TB detection and free medicine in TB dot centers.
01:49Our problem is that we have a lot of fallouts.
01:52You treat them, and after one to two months,
01:56you feel good, you don't have a fever, you don't have a cold, and they stop coming.
02:02You need six to nine months to completely treat TB.
02:07For those of us who need medical assistance,
02:11you can leave a message on the GMA Kapuso Foundation's official Facebook page
02:17under our Kapuso Kalusugan Konsulta Project.
02:22And for those who support our projects,

02:41we are very happy to have you with us tonight.
02:44The GMA Kapuso Foundation has recognized the siblings
02:48who are having a hard time because of a small tumor that has spread to their bodies.
02:55What is their condition, and will this be treated?
03:01In the daily services of the Church Of Christ of Latter-day Saints,
03:05they pray daily for their well-being.
03:10That is also what they ask of the nearest priest of all the saints of the Church Of Christ.
03:16The siblings have a small tumor in their body.
03:22I lost my confidence.
03:24For example, I will be courted by a woman,
03:26I feel like my heart is weakening.
03:28I am just pouring my soul into serving the Lord.
03:32Angelina's whole body and face is almost covered by the tumor.
03:36Even in this condition, I can still find a way to live.
03:39Because of their condition, they did not have a family of their own.
03:45They thought that they owe it to their father, who also has this condition.
03:51Angelina was only able to have a check-up once, but nothing happened.
03:56Caloy, on the other hand, was not able to see the doctor.
04:01To find out the condition of the siblings,
04:04GMA Kapuso Foundation brought them to a specialist.
04:09They have urofibromatosis,
04:12a type of disease where there are different types of tumors.
04:17Actually, this is a tumor of the nerves.
04:20Number one, it can be inherited or it can be inherited.
04:24Another way, this is due to spontaneous mutation.
04:28Her parents are not the same.
04:29She suddenly had a mutation.
04:31At present, there is no treatment for urofibromatosis.
04:35It can be removed.
04:36We operate on it because it is a tumor of the nerves.
04:42They underwent surgery the following week.
04:45Kapuso, if you are from Metro Manila,
04:49and you notice a tumor or cyst in your body that is not cancer,
04:55it means you have a runny nose, you are bleeding and getting bigger,
05:00you have goiter or bocio,
05:03you may have a runny nose.
05:06Kapuso, because of your unwavering support,
05:10447 Kapuso Class 1,
05:15Kapuso Class 2,
05:18Kapuso Class 3,
05:20Kapuso Class 4,
05:22Kapuso Class 5,
05:24Kapuso Class 6,
05:26Kapuso Class 7,
05:29Kapuso Class 8,
05:32We have already built 447 Kapuso Classrooms in Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao.
05:40Not only in education,
05:42the benefits of those structures,
05:44but also in times of famine and calamity.
05:52Not only the knowledge and wisdom of the youth,
05:57but also the Kapuso Schools established by the GMA Kapuso Foundation in different parts of the country.
06:05It also became a source of support for families who have no one to turn to in times of calamity.
06:11Just like when the Typhoon Christine and the Super Typhoon Pepito hit the Bicol Region.
06:20Around 30 families moved to our Kapuso School in Barrio Elementary School in Kamalig North, Albay.
06:29This is the building that was saved from the flood.
06:32The roofing and the physical facilities are still in good condition.
06:38The 20 Kapuso Classrooms in Santo Domingo Central School in Albay also remain strong and strong against the typhoon.
06:47No iron was blown away and the ceilings are still in good condition.
06:51They also use this evacuation center when the Mayon Volcano erupts.
06:58Even though many typhoons have passed,
07:01our classrooms were still used during Mayon eruptions,
07:06but it is still good.
07:10Our Kapuso Schools in Cagayan and Benguet were also saved from the typhoon Marseille.
07:19Now, it will still be a source of support for teachers.
07:24The room is very conducive for the children.
07:28There is no need to worry about calamities because the children are safe.
07:34Aside from the well-maintained ceilings,
07:36the GMI Kapuso Foundation hopes that the community will be safe from calamities.
