00:00Did you know that this 88-year-old grandmother, Owa Minay of Argao, Cebu,
00:10is climbing a mountain?
00:15In this rugged part of Argao, Cebu,
00:21there is a grandmother who has been climbing the mountain all her life.
00:31Her goal is to get a branch of a plant that I call Nito.
00:39This is the material that she will use to sell her basket.
00:52The road is white and slippery, especially during the rainy season.
01:00Even if she doesn't want to climb, maybe she can provide for her family.
01:03It's easy for her to climb if she can slide.
01:05The jungle is very dangerous.
01:10Just one wrong step,
01:13she will be swallowed by a snake.
01:17Sometimes we are afraid that she might get lost on the road.
01:22I feel sorry for her because it's hard for her age.
01:26Sometimes she even forgets where she came from.
01:29I feel sorry for her because it's hard for her to climb.
01:34I don't want her to get lost on the road.
01:40Why does a grandmother risk her life to build a basket?
01:50The elderly woman lives in Barangay Alambihud.
01:55She is the 88-year-old grandmother, Owa Minay.
02:01She lives here with her siblings, Inday Liling, who is 82 years old,
02:07and their son, Simanoy Guillermo, who is 81 years old.
02:13Owa Minay and Inday Liling grew up together.
02:17Simanoy Guillermo separated from his wife.
02:20They helped each other because they were young.
02:25Their three-year-old grandson lives with his cousin,
02:29and his family member, Cleofe, who lives next to their house.
02:34Every time they go out,
02:36I take care of them.
02:39I take care of Inday Liling.
02:46Inday Liling is bedridden
02:48because of a splinter in her eye,
02:50after being stabbed by a knife,
02:52while Simanoy Guillermo is almost paralyzed.
02:57Of the three of them,
02:58even though their eyes are covered with blood,
03:02Owa Minay is still the strongest.
03:06That's why she is the one who is in charge of climbing the mountain.
03:10When I get home from work, I will take care of her.
03:14After breakfast,
03:16Owa Minay took her bag.
03:23I'm the only one who wants to reach the top.
03:26I can't walk.
03:38Owa Minay had to walk for an hour
03:41before she reached the entrance of the forest.
03:57Three times a week,
03:58Owa Minay and her son
04:00go to the forest to look for food.
04:03They look for sources of income
04:05so that they can buy rice,
04:07water,
04:08and fish.
04:12In the middle of the forest,
04:14Owa Minay met
04:16a fierce snake.
04:19I don't know how to deal with it.
04:23I can't even touch it.
04:37Within more than an hour of Oa Minay's wandering in the forest, she was able to get 20 pieces
04:52of nettle.
04:53The remaining biscuit from her breakfast, she ate first.
05:18The nettles she got were immediately cleaned by Oa Minay.
05:44The next thing she ate were the dried pieces of nettles.
05:49Oa Minay's eyes were blurry, but she didn't even look at the basket she was holding.
06:00Oa Minay is the 6th in the family, she was only 10 years old when she learned how to knit.

07:15They know how to work until they want it but with limitations.
07:18As of 2020, there are 1.8 million people who cannot receive pensions.
07:24They want to leave their children to be independent.
07:29The government should give support.
07:32Especially my mother, because she doesn't have a husband and children.
07:36This Friday, our team accompanied Oa Minay, Inday Liling, and Manoy Guillermo
07:43to have their doctors checked up.
07:45Inday Liling's BP is really high, 150 over 90.
07:49It's dangerous if we don't control it.
07:51My father felt that when it comes to aging,
07:55our hearing will really diminish.
07:58For us to know the underlying conditions,
08:00we really need to undergo comprehensive tests.
08:04Oa Minay's eyes were also examined.
08:07Usually, when there's a cataract, the light doesn't enter the eyes.
08:13It's hard for them to look far.
08:16They're prone to accidents.
08:17We can refer them to our partner ophthalmologist
08:21who will perform cataract surgery for free.
08:26So that they won't have to worry about food for the next few days,
08:37our team gave them grocery items.
08:40Thank you, Madam.
08:42I hope you'll receive a lot of groceries.
08:45Thank you!
08:46Thank you so much!
08:48Thank you so much!
08:50Thank you, Madam.
08:51I hope you'll receive a lot of groceries.
08:53Thank you!
08:54Thank you so much!
08:57And so that it won't be hard for them to travel,
08:59the Department of Labor and Employment promised
09:02that they will provide support to them.
09:05Through the Dollar Integrated Livelihood Program,
09:07we provide livelihood projects
09:10to senior citizens like Oa Minay
09:12and other marginalized and vulnerable groups.
09:15As individuals, we can provide up to 30,000 worth of materials
09:20and supplies to them.
09:22So that it won't be too dangerous
09:26and it won't be a burden.
09:28We can procure the materials
09:32and give it to them.
09:34They can make baskets at home.
09:39It's almost the end of their lives.
09:43Instead of resting,
09:45because there's no other way,
09:50here they are,
09:51living their best lives
09:53for the next 10 days
09:56so that they can live.
10:04Thank you for watching, Kapuso!
