V, Burauen, Leyte. He was born on November 13, 1958 in Burauen, Leyte. He is an Elementary Graduate

and finished his Elementary Education at Cantimawa Elementary School.

He has problems in walking due to the accident he experienced for 5 years from now. He needs medical

assistance for the examination and treatment of his paralyzed leg for his wife’s income is just enough to feed

his family. His wife and his daughter Jonarose is the only one who supports their family’s needs who are both

working as a “kasambahay” in Manila

He is a smiling person, he has respect to others, a responsible father, also, he is an accommodating

man and he has an optimistic attitude towards life, although, he and his family faces a lot of circumstances.

used external resources available to him. If he has only sought help, his problem would already

be treated on therapies. He has not sought any medical treatment after being hospitalized from

the accident that happened to him. As during that time, no one would support his medical needs

as he is the only one working for the family and his earnings are only enough for food expenses.
