00:00What can you do for the one you love the most, a Mrs. Sapalawan who can not only take care of everyone but can also sacrifice everything to take care of her mister who is sick.
00:22Almost 1,000 tourist van driver in Puerto Princesa City, Jocel, the paradise island of Palawan.
00:35But she has not been able to travel for more than a year.
00:39After she was hit by a terrible illness.
00:48Here is Jocel now.
00:52She is like a rotten vegetable.
00:56What makes her sad is the fact that she is with Jamaica.
01:08How long can you bear it?
01:22How long can you hold on to the love?
01:52Since Jocel got sick, Jamaica has been serving her hands and feet.
02:09Jocel's food needs to be blended and passed through the NGT or Nasogastric Tube.
02:23Even though Jocel has a heavy heart, she needs to pass her hands and feet through the tube.
02:47She also takes a bath on the floor.
02:50She can't stand up.
02:53We can't push her out of the tub.
03:00After that, I put her head down again.
03:05I took her clothes off.
03:08I asked her where she was.
03:10I asked her where she was because her back is really important.
03:13That's why she didn't move.
03:20Jocel is crying.
03:32Jocel seems to have a child's mind.
03:36When she was able to remove the bandage from her hand,
03:39she tried to hold the face towel.
03:43When she was able to hold the face towel, she tried to hold the mouth towel.
03:48She tried to hold the mouth towel.
03:52What makes Jamaica happy in taking care of her mister are their two children.
04:03The eldest, John Henry, is good at giving medicine to Jocel.
04:09I take care of Jocel.
04:11I take care of her back.
04:13I take care of her mouth.
04:15I take care of my friends.
04:17We often play together.
04:19Now, Jocel is sick.
04:24I need to take care of Jocel.
04:27There's no one to take care of her.
04:32She's very sick.
04:35My dad won't get better.
04:40My children tell me every day,
04:44Mom, if we take my dad to the doctor, will he get better?
04:48I say, he will get better.
04:50We just have to believe that he will get better.
04:54Four.
04:56Because Jocel's feet and teeth are slowly rotting.
05:01Three, four, five.
05:05Five.
05:09Jocel is sitting on a chair.
05:12So that I can lean on her.
05:14Because she's already like that.
05:16So I make her sit so that she won't be too heavy.
05:19So that her feet can be held so that she can move.
05:24It's very expensive to take care of Jocel.
05:29So, for Jameica to have a place to work,
05:34she built a small store.
05:47And she also became a delivery rider.
05:53In one week, I needed almost 10,000 pesos.
05:56I did buy and sell.
05:58Vegetables, grains, anything that can be sold.
06:04In the hope of making money,
06:09she also started vlogging.
06:13She's showing their situation as a couple.
06:20She's still sleeping since last night.
06:22Last night, I just changed my diaper around 12.
06:27I've been vlogging for almost 6 months.
06:29It's like I'm just expressing my emotions.
06:31I'm sleepy.
06:37I'm sleepy.
06:39Let's go to sleep.
06:42This is what I'm vlogging right now.
06:44She's already hanging, she's already lying down.
06:46I'm going to buy something, but I'm putting her aside
06:49because Jocel's needs are bigger.
06:51My first salary for vlogging is 5,000 pesos.
06:56I'm so happy.
06:57My name, my name, my name.
07:00But recently, for unknown reasons,
07:04Jameica's Facebook account can no longer make money.
07:08It's like we have a memory.
07:10Meta didn't show me my violation.
07:16They said that someone reported me
07:19that other people didn't like what I was doing.
07:24Like many relationships,
07:26Jocel and Jameica started out as friends.
07:31Then, they decided to be together.
07:34Their love for each other was fruitful.
07:36And Jameica saw how responsible Jocel's father was.
07:42Our eldest, he's the one who brings in the money.
07:45They decided to support their two children,
07:48Jocel, who is the owner of a tourist van,
07:51and Jameica, who is the secretary of a private company.
07:55Our life was okay before.
07:57We were able to get by every day because she has a job.
08:01They also dreamed of getting married,
08:03but they were short on money.
08:05Until they decided to register for Kasalang Bayan
08:09just last year.
08:11In February,
08:13we decided to register for Kasalang Bayan.
08:17We were short on money, so we decided to register for Kasalang.
08:20But two months before they were able to register,
08:24Jocel got sick.
08:26At first, she felt tired.
08:29At first, we thought she was just tired because she was working.
08:33She suddenly started sweating,
08:34even though she was wearing an electric fan or air conditioner.
08:38Her heart was palpitating.
08:41It was hard for her to breathe.
08:42But she continued to work.
08:46They asked a specialist to take a look at her.
08:49She was given a pain reliever.
08:51She was lying down.
08:52She had a seizure.
08:54She fell down.
08:56I was so scared.
08:58I didn't know what to do.
09:00It was 50-50 because she was already swollen.
09:05Jocel got comatose.
09:07I was so scared.
09:09I didn't know what to do.
09:10Especially when she was swollen.
09:12They discovered that she had an unusual disease
09:16called hyperthyroidism.
09:19There are risk factors that can lead to hyperthyroidism.
09:25These include genetic susceptibility,
09:28stress, panegyrelia,
09:30and several viral infections.
09:32Symptoms of hyperthyroidism include
09:35excessive sweating,
09:36chest pain,
09:37weight loss,
09:39numbness in the hands,
09:40and frequent vomiting or diarrhea.
09:43Jocel kept fighting.
09:45It took a long time for her to respond.
09:47The only thing we could do at first was to make her breathe.
09:51Almost two months after the coma,
09:56she suddenly became conscious.
09:59She woke up.
10:00But
10:01her eyeballs just woke up.
10:03Her body wasn't moving.
10:05Take a bath.
10:06Eat.
10:08She couldn't remember anything.
10:10She couldn't speak.
10:13Because of Jocel's high thyroid hormone,
10:16or what we call thyroid storm,
10:18there was a bruise on her brain.
10:21Because of the bruise,
10:22she couldn't speak.
10:25She had convulsions,
10:27and she couldn't remember.
10:30Because they were confined to the hospital for more than two months,
10:33their bill reached almost 1.4 million pesos.
10:38That's why Jamaica decided to take Jocel home.
10:43It's important for me that she remembers what happened to us before we got married.
10:49Because she will know that we loved each other at first,
10:54before we got married.
10:56Do you know her?
10:59Hoping that Jocel's memories will come back,
11:03Jamaica showed her their old pictures every day.
11:08This is what we got.
11:10We got a tricycle.
11:12Then we blessed it with a broom.
11:16This is the first cake I bought for you.
11:20You even told me why I gave you a cake.
11:24This is when you were fat.
11:26Look at your body.
11:28You were fat.
11:36Get up,
11:37and ride your tricycle again.
11:39Ride your tricycle again.
11:56So that you can ride your tricycle again.
11:59Get up.
12:08Papa,
12:09I love you so much.
12:12I hope you get well soon.
12:21In the line of marriage,
12:24the hardships we went through,
12:25the two of us together,
12:27the words I held in my heart,
12:29I love Jocel.
12:31Even if we are not perfect,
12:34as husband and wife,
12:35as live-in partner,
12:36I love her.
12:40This Thursday,
12:41our team accompanied Jamaica
12:43to Jocel's check-up.
12:49Let's continue with her thyroid medicine
12:51so that her thyroid hormone can be controlled.
12:56Compared to last year,
12:57she has improved.
12:58She used to have no movement,
13:00no response,
13:01but now,
13:02her hands are strong.
13:06Fortunately,
13:07the hospital promised
13:08to give Jocel
13:10free therapy sessions.
13:13Thank you, doc.
13:14Thank you to the two of you
13:15for continuing to take care of Jocel.
13:19The Social Welfare and Development Office
13:22and the Rotary Club of Puerto Princesa City
13:25also provided medical assistance,
13:28foam,
13:29blankets,
13:30and groceries
13:31for their small Sari-Sari store.
13:33You will receive P15,000
13:35financial assistance
13:37from the office of CSWD,
13:39aside from the previous assistance.
13:42We are from the Rotary Club
13:43of Puerto Princesa Central.
13:45We helped each other
13:46to buy diapers,
13:49tissues,
13:50and milk for your husband.
13:52Our program also provided
13:54medical supplies for Jocel,
13:57and school supplies
13:58for John Enric and Giselle.
14:02I'm not used to this.
14:04A lot of people help,
14:05but I'm not used to this.
14:07We also gave Jamaica
14:09a new cell phone.
14:11Thank you very much.
14:12Thank you very much to KMGS.
14:14Thank you very much.
14:15I can now use this
14:16when I go shopping
14:18or when I vlog.
14:20Our program also helped them
14:22to bring the Jamaica account
14:24to the Meta or Facebook
14:27so that they can monetize it again.
14:30We also fixed it.
14:31We are still waiting
14:32if there will be any changes.
14:35Now, the day of hearts is coming.
14:38Jamaica has the gift of love
14:42for her loved one.
14:43I thought before
14:46that I wouldn't be able to survive.
14:50But I'm still here.
14:54I remember everything.
14:59So,
15:01keep fighting
15:02because I'm still here.
15:05I told you
15:07that I won't leave you.
15:09As much as I can.
15:11Just keep fighting.
15:14I will do everything.
15:17It's too far.
15:19It's too far.
15:21I will think about it from the start.
15:23Let's end it here.
15:25Thank you so much
15:26because you fought.
15:28You still fought.
15:29You are still with us now.
15:31I just wish
15:32that you will get better.
15:36Because I'm having a hard time
15:38being here alone.
15:41I don't know anymore.
15:44I'm just trying to be strong
15:46for you and the kids.
15:51I hope that you will get to know us.
15:53I hope that you will respond
15:55when we talk to your kids.
15:59I hope that you will respond
16:01when we talk to your kids.
16:03I hope that you will respond
16:05when we talk to your kids.
16:07I hope that you will respond
16:09when we talk to your kids.
16:12Papa!
16:14There are many reasons
16:15to give up.
16:18But there is always one reason
16:20to keep going.
16:24Let that one reason
16:27be the one
16:28that no matter how hard
16:30or how difficult it is,
16:33you will always choose.
