"serve to save"


January 15, 2007 marked the blessing of the new medical building of the Philippine Coast Guard with no less than Dr. Ted Esguerra, Philippine Mt. Everest Expedition Team Physician, leading the PCG medical staff on this affair --- it has been a dream come true! Congrats, Doc. Ted! One achievement after another!

Um... what's next...?!?


Prior to the actual blessing of the facility, a short program was held at the PCG conference room were plaques of recognition were distributed to guests.

Drs. Tom and Yolanda Stern of One World Institute turned over their donations ----- wheelchairs for several chosen recipients. Luckily, one of those was the Municipality of Pandi, thru the recommendation of Dr. Esguerra.

I went back bringing 3 wheelchairs with me: one for the members of the Associated Workers' Union, and two for Pandi, Bulacan --- one of which will be turned over to the Municipal Health Office for use at the Emergency Services Unit, and one to be given to a cerebral palsy child patient who lives in Poblacion, Pandi.

Thank you, doctors! We would be glad to have you visit us in Pandi!
