PNAMC Launches Balikbayan Medical Mission
By: Aleli Frias, Medical Mission Chairperson
The Philippine Nurses Association Maryland Chapter,PNAMC, conducted its first medical mission to Davao City on January 10-12, 2010. The Three day mission was held in the remote Barangays of Tambobong, Mintal and the City of Panabo. Approximately 2,800 adults and children received dental and medical care from local volunteers and PNAMC members.
Partnership with local organizations and media was instrumental tothe success of the mission.San Pedro College and Medical Center, Rotary Club of Waling-Waling and Panabo, and the Department of Health provided healthcare personnel, while PNAMC and Pikesville Rotary Club provided the funds for medicine, dental suppliesand dental care packages. A special donation for the McDonald's treat evoked happy faces, bringing priceless memories to 950 local children.
Poor access to healthcare and costly medicine remain a barrier to health for many Filipinos. To provide preventive and dental services throughout the year to the most impoverished population, San Pedro College Community Extension proposed a Mobile Clinic, fully equipped and manned by local professional volunteers. The PNAMC donated the initial funds to spearhead theproject for 2011.

The philippine Embassy, Washington DC held a memorial mass at the Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle for Her Excellency Corazon C. Aquino, President of the Philippines from1986-1992, on August 2, 2009. Cory's photo and a wreath of yellow daisies were placed on the front steps. The mass was presided by Msgr. W. Ronald Jameson with Fr. Jose Opalda as co-celebrant and the Ateneo Alumni Glee Club participated in the liturgy. Thechurch was packed with people wearing yellow and gentlemen wearing black ribbon strips on their left sleeves. After mass was a procession with the picture of Cory and the wreath to the embassy.
At the embassy front lawn, people were asked to sign the guestbook and the association they were representing. Vicky Navarro represented President Leo Felix Jurado and the PNAA. There was a reception and the ongoing signing of the condolence book in the Romulo Hall which was converted to a very solemn and elegantmeditation room with bouquets of yellow flowers. There were books on People Power for guests while waiting to sign. Lights were soft and dimmed with a muted spotlight focused on President Aquino's oil portrait.
PNAA's message to President Aquino's family and the Filipino people:
To the most admired Filipino Heroine of modern times, Cory Aquino:
Our sincere appreciation for your dedicated service to and selfless love of the Filipino people at a time when we needed a leader to keep our democracy alive!
