calling CODE BLUE

I’m paralyzed, can’t hardly breathe

I can move yet I can’t feel it

I live yet I almost died

Fire and ice inside

Pain and struggling

Half alive, half dying

Breaking inside

Trying to hold the pieces firmer

Making the grip bleeding

Trying to dry and wipe it away

Hiding the tears and not letting a drop fall again

It’s hurting me more and more

Been to diverting things

Controlling gate to lessen pain

Yet pain is so huge  that it makes it through the gate

Stabbing till it reaches my veins

Bleeding to my soul and out to my senses

Holding on this punishment that i deserve

Hoping that I could last

Pain is so much that I now need to let go

but I choose to  hold on till you ask me to stop.

but if I do i’ll bleed myself to death.

declare me dead, after your through

once a part of the team

 the USNS MERCY… This ship travels around the world to extend hands to those less fortunate people. They got sophistication when it comes to the medical stuff. They had an OR inside the ship and offers their 1st class services for free and it prioritizes the natives and those less fortunate who can’t afford an operation on hospitals here in our country. They deserve it! cool!

Recently, about two weeks ago, the ship got here and docked at Polloc Port, Cotabato City. Besides the mercy ship OR, Medical, dental, eye mission, and circumcissions; part of the team extends their services on land. They travel from the ship to the towns chosen to be a venue and luckily i’ve got to experience working with them.  It was avery good and inspiring experience. They’re really dedicated to the mission and they’re really good at their fields and I had learned a lot from them. Thanks! Experience is really the  best teacher.

I have met inspiring persons like US Army Surgeon Amy L. Young, she was 1/4 Asian and the rest is Caucasian and American, she was so simple, humble, of strong personality, and very dedicated to serving people. She is really someone who would i look up to when it comes to dedication to work and serving the humanity and yet she is so approachable and friendly while maintaining her noble stand and diplomacy. :) Nice meeting you Maj. Young. Salute to u major young!

Another person that I can’t forget in this once in a lifetime experience with the USNS MERCY is  Navy Nurse Cieo. She was an American, when i 1st saw her the first thing that i noticed was her wrinkled skin due to her age. She was a not-so-old lady but it obvious that she had been a lot earlier in this earth and yet she is still very dynamic and very energetic in joining medical missions. I saw her eating Pastil on the alley of the waiting area. so simple! We socialized with her and  talked a lot about everything that we ask about the mission and the team.  I salute you ma’am!

Me and tintin also had a time with US Navy Administrator Verhulst during our break with the vitals taking and we had also tal;ked about the mission and team.

 Sir Verhulst is the one on my left.

Me and tintin had alo our time of small talks with the "eye guys" when we relieved richard and badic on their posts. Sir Wanagot for the Far vision examination and ir Rosenfield on the Near vision exams.

We also assisted nurse Morgan on her consultations and played as translators. hehehe…

US Army  Major Douglas.The head of the mission  

It was quite an experience!

Thanks to Capt. Fidelino and his men for the invaluable assistance to us

You’ll always be….

We were as one babe
For a moment in time
And it seemed everlasting
That you would always be mine

Now you want to be free
So I’m letting you fly
Cause I know in my heart babe
Our love will never die
No!

You’ll always be a part of me
I’m a part of you indefinitely
Boy don’t you know you can’t escape me
Ooh darling cause you’ll always be my baby
And we’ll linger on
Time can’t erase a feeling this strong
No way you’re never gonna shake me
Ooh darling cause you’ll always be my baby
