With your generous help, Operation Blessing’s Medical Brigade is able to bring hope and healing to our kababayans in Ilocos Norte.
More than 400 residents received free medical care such as general checkups, dental and optical services, and took home free medicines, hygiene kits, and ‘Our Daily Bread’ devotionals.
One of the beneficiaries is Nanay Dominga.
During her free consultation with Operation Blessing’s doctors, Nanay Dominga shared her health struggle: she could not stand extreme heat; the hot weather made her feel weak.
“When the weather is hot, I feel very weak, like a wilted vegetable,” she said in vernacular. After suffering a stroke six years ago, she has been particularly sensitive to heat, and the current weather worsened her condition.
She would bathe every afternoon to refresh herself and lessen the heat she was experiencing. However, it was not enough—she needed to consult with a doctor for medication and vitamins.
Thanks to Operation Blessing’s medical mission in their community, Nanay Dominga received free check-ups and essential medicine and vitamins to alleviate her condition. The team also gave her a hygiene kit, and a copy of ‘Our Daily Bread’ devotional, and prayed for her continuous healing.
“This medical brigade is truly a blessing!” Nanay Dominga shared.
She also has a heartfelt message for Operation Blessing staff, donors, partners, and volunteers who made this medical brigade happen, “Your generous work is a great help, and I pray that God sees your sacrifices. May He give you strength, long life, and good health, and may we all be protected from any danger.”
