00:00 What happened to your life 20 years ago?
00:05 This woman,
00:09 22 years ago,
00:12 or more than 2 decades,
00:15 was just here in this house.
00:17 She was being raped by her own father.
00:25 I was tied up and I was taken to the police station.
00:30 In this barong barong in Lupon, Davao Oriental,
00:43 the father's life is tied up.
00:46 This corner of their home
00:48 became the world of the 71-year-old Mang Rosalino.
00:54 [Music]
00:58 The woman, Angela,
01:01 was beaten to a pulp.
01:03 I don't know what to do.
01:05 I'm her son.
01:07 I'm ashamed.
01:08 I have no one.
01:09 Angela was not only beaten by her own father,
01:14 but also by her own mind.
01:17 When she woke up in the morning,
01:21 Mang Rosalino was preparing her son's breakfast.
01:25 Thank you.
01:26 Let's eat.
01:30 But that morning, Angela was not hungry.
01:34 Let's eat.
01:35 I'll get her plate.
01:39 You can eat.
01:41 After that, she took a bath.
01:50 Turn around.
01:52 Turn around.
01:57 I'm turning around.
01:59 Even if she was fighting with her heart
02:08 to take care of her son,
02:10 she couldn't do anything.
02:11 She said that it was so small that it disappeared.
02:16 [Screaming]
02:21 She was already fighting.
02:23 She was fighting for her life.
02:25 She was already fighting.
02:26 She was already fighting.
02:28 I was already crying.
02:29 I was crying because
02:31 I saw my son was already fighting.
02:33 I was crying because she was my daughter.
02:36 Huh?
02:37 Don't do that to people.
02:40 [Screaming]
02:41 What calmed Angela down
02:44 was her toy plastic bottle.
02:47 Even if it fell down several times,
02:49 she would still reach it.
02:52 Let's see if it broke.
02:53 Let's see if it's still working.
02:54 I think it's broken.
02:56 When Mang Rosalino realized that Angela was okay,
03:01 she went straight to the farm.
03:03 In planting and selling vegetables,
03:06 Mang Rosalino's son, Angela,
03:08 earns
03:10 P100 to P200 per week.
03:14 It was already dark when she got home.
03:19 Because Angela didn't eat all day,
03:21 when she got home,
03:23 Mang Rosalino prepared her son's dinner.
03:27 Rice and sardines.
03:35 [Music]
03:42 Feeding Angela was hard work.
03:46 One.
03:47 Two.
03:48 Two.
03:51 Two.
03:52 Okay.
03:53 Three.
04:00 She even laid down so her son could sleep.
04:05 Mang Rosalino's only wife, Angela.
04:11 When Angela was two years old,
04:13 they noticed that she was acting differently.
04:16 She was like a doll.
04:17 When she was a baby,
04:19 she was like a doll.
04:21 She was like a doll.
04:22 I went to the farm.
04:25 I saw a crack.
04:27 I went there.
04:28 I went there.
04:29 I went to the doctor's room.
04:31 Despite their differences,
04:34 they decided to adopt their two-year-old son.
04:39 I used to use a hoe.
04:42 I used to use a hoe.
04:43 I didn't know how to use a hoe.
04:45 I didn't know how to do it.
04:47 I went to school.
04:48 I went to school.
04:50 I couldn't do it.
04:51 Mang Rosalino was more affected by Angela's growing up
04:56 when his wife died in 2015.
04:59 I called her many times.
05:01 Mom.
05:02 Yes?
05:03 Mom.
05:04 Yes?
05:06 Mom.
05:07 She said she will take care of him.
05:09 But I was the only one.
05:11 Mang Rosalino is now afraid of how Angela will be
05:16 when she is about to die.
05:20 If I die,
05:21 I will be left alone.
05:23 I will be left alone.
05:25 I will be left alone.
05:26 I want to go to the hospital so that she can recover.
05:30 This Friday,
05:33 Angela was rescued by the police from Davao Oriental Provincial Medical Center
05:37 and PNP Lupon, Davao Oriental.
05:42 Their home was in need of a gun.
05:52 Knife.
05:55 Angela was reluctant to join.
06:18 She was forced to leave the house.
06:23 But when she arrived at the hospital,
06:45 [Gunshots]
06:48 [Screams]
06:51 Angela may have intellectual disability, malnutrition, and seizure disorder.
06:59 What the patient needs is a psychiatric referral.
07:02 Since we also see the patient to have intellectual disability,
07:06 for the best of the patient,
07:07 this could be referred to a higher institution that could properly manage her case.
07:11 But since the hospital has no facility for her case,
07:16 they recommended that she be brought to a mental health facility.
07:20 We will be following up this patient and referring her to experts
07:25 and particular individuals who can help her.
07:28 We will also focus on every now and then,
07:31 periodically following up her through our social service.
07:35 We gave medication and other expenses,
07:40 especially to their medical.
07:42 First of all, they don't know proper handling.
07:45 Second, there is stigma.
07:47 We are not aware of how to take care of people with this condition.
07:53 In our data, the general trend that we see in terms of mental health,
07:59 more than 50% increase.
08:01 We coordinated and partnered really with the Department of Health,
08:04 Center for Health Development, Region 11.
08:07 We trained additional doctors.
08:10 Meanwhile, to make the parents comfortable,
08:13 they organized a group of people.
08:17 The group also provided groceries.
08:30 Our program also provided financial assistance.
08:33 I am thankful to you. I will support you.
08:37 Here in the Philippines,
08:39 we have many people who are in poverty
08:43 and have no knowledge about the importance of mental health.
08:50 Instead of judging, let's understand their situation
08:56 and help them free from their thoughts.
09:01 I have a boat, I have many children.
09:04 I have many children.
09:06 [Music]
