HEART ATTACK. IT’S MORE FUN AT EASTWOOD RICHMONDE HOTEL.

Four days from now is Mother’s Day and yet Mama is still in a comatose state at the ICU of Medical City. She suffered a heart attack on May 3, 2013. It was the wedding day of my older sister and we were busy preparing at Eastwood Richmonde Hotel. I was on the second floor of the hotel together with the bride and my other sisters to have our pictures taken when Mama had a heart attack. Mama was left at the hotel room with my father and two brothers at that time since she said that she has to pee and they will just follow suit. After peeing, Mama experienced difficulty in breathing at the hotel room that prompted my brother to request assistance from the front desk for wheelchair. When Mama fell unconscious, they rushed her outside the room and went for the elevator. My brother also noted that the hotel staffs were just standing when they saw them carry Mama to the elevator. Little did we know that while we were smiling in front of the camera on the second floor of the hotel, there was already a commotion in the hotel lobby. My brother was furious as there was no doctor on standby at that time and no standby vehicle for such emergencies. Oh, but they do have a standby vehicle reserved for a guest who will be picked up from the airport! They did not even request an ambulance from Medical City and just gave a very lame excuse that it would take longer if we would wait for an ambulance instead of rushing Mama to Medical City. Fortunately, a part of the wedding entourage was at the drop off area of the hotel and they just used his vehicle to bring Mama to the hospital. The Nurse on Duty was with them but it was obvious that she didn’t know what to do for no first aid treatment has been administered to Mama and she just kept on taking Mama’s blood pressure even if she was already unconscious! She didn’t even bother to check along the way if Mama has a pulse. My brother contacted his friend who was a pediatrician at Medical City that they were coming and to coordinate the matter to ER. Alas, Mama arrived with no vitals and was just revived by the ER team of Medical City. Total revival time took 14 minutes, plus the travel time from Eastwood City to Medical City which is around 15 minutes since it was a Friday and the start of the three-day Mega Sale. Her lack of oxygen for more than ten minutes resulted in her comatose state, and according to her doctors she scored 3 in the Glasgow Coma Scale, the lowest score, meaning she was unresponsive to any kind of pain inflicted on her. What started as a festive day ended in a somber mood, anxiety was seen in our faces during the ceremony. What should be the ‘best day ever’ of my Ate became the ‘worst day ever’, including ours too. Hotels, who charge exorbitant prices, especially those that are claiming to be ‘so and so’ star standards are supposed to handle this kind of emergency as their business entails Hospitality Management. On this note, I would like to ask how were they given the permit to operate when in reality, their first aid facility sucks??? And with this kind of weather, heatstroke is prevalent; how come they have not expected this kind of emergency? So, while others will be dining out on Mother’s Day to honor our beloved mothers, I just fervently hope that we can celebrate Mama’s 69th birthday on May 11 in a private room, and with her eyes opened, instead of celebrating it at the ICU. written by dulce amor fernandez

Gong Cha Bloopers

Sometime last August, we bought a Gong Cha milk tea at Megamall Atrium and I was surprised to see this when I got home. My milk tea had an extra free cover of the shaker! When we tried to buy again and informed them that I have the cover, they were asking me to return it because it will be deducted from them, it is part of their inventory. Well, the guy who prepared my drink apologized but I wanted to hear more than that. So the cover stays with me.

Visiting Cousins from Seattle, Washington

Tawny and Abbey are my husband's cousins who lived in the United States and they are studying at the Seattle University in Washington. Tawny used to go to Roosevelt High School and she was one of the awarded student in her school. Abbey is into sports, dancing and fashion.

Sometimes they would tell stories about their university and life in the United States.  since they are Americans and they love American sports, they watch sports from the TV and if it is a university game, they were allowed to watch an actual game. These ladies have overprotective parents and so I am amazed.

Superbowl Chicago Bears

Irwin hopefully will be issued a US visa so he can go to the States this end of April. I really wanted to go with him but applying a visa is difficult and I found out that airfare is quite expensive. This is not the first time he will visit the United States because he was there May 2001 and returned September 10, 2001. Just one day before the Twin Towers attack.

This time Irwin will be travelling to attend the Blackberry Convention at Orlando, Florida. I really wish I could visit US.
