The Filipino spirit of bayanihan never dampened during the height of the torrential rains earlier this week. Even in our own neighborhood here in Roxas District, the barangay volunteers ensured that those who needed to be saved were given priority. I actually saw some guys resuce an old man in a wheelchair in the house across ours! The waters in their area have reached waist level already so he had to be transferred to a safer area.
We did allow Jessie, one of our other drivers to use our L300 so that he can bring his wife and kids to safer ground - he said to some of his relatives in Fairview. My friend Denky, cooked food for us and even lent her gasul so we could cook! Such a kind lady! She also gave some biscuits and chocolates to Laura and Dylan. We're just ever so thankful for kind people like her!
