Thank you all for your emails and text messages. The most deserving of these praises are the medical team who went the extra mile to be of service to our small community. It would have been easier for them to just stay at home and bond with their family but they chose to serve us all. Thank you!
In addition to Ces, thank you din to:
Our very young medtechs: Erica Joy B. Torres Kim Edison Chan
Our beautiful volunteer nurses: Anna Karyll N. Titco Jocelyn Limbo-Songco
Cecil Roman who persisted in looking for a dentist and found not one but 2 dentists :-).
At sa mga cookie giveaways for the doctors. Ces who picked up the boxes of medicines at Dr. Joy Tica's place. Kuya Dodie, bro of Cecil Roman who also contributed to the food. Remy Calilung for the ice cold juice drinks Opet who arranged the venue. Raul Balagtas for the yummy cupcakes. Manny Limpin for the sapin sapin. Ask Manny kung sino huling nag pa inject sa kanilang family :-) GNC guards who helped bring up the medical supplies to the third floor.
Here are the numbers:
- Total flu vaccines administered: 98 shots to batchmates & their families
- Reading glasses issued: 39 pcs
- Reading glasses to be issued: 36 pcs. As advised by Dr. Joy Tica, these will be ready by 1st week of June. Will advise when this will be available for pick up.
- Sugar count check: 110 persons
- Bloodtyping: 72 persons
Thank you again to all who gave their support. God bless.
Merci
We have waited 25 years
And the waiting did not lie in vain. For every single support we received from all of you and those who did not make it tonight and most especially the graces bestowed upon us by our Maker, made the Silver Homecoming worth the waiting.
Living Life at Its Best. Is the theme of the night. Because you chose to be in this place this very night, we promised you this would be the most unforgettable of them all.
THANK YOU FOR ATTENDING THE GRAND '09.
