00:00Let's talk to the real sales assistant,
00:03Yes!
00:03who is April Joyce Baccarat!
00:05Hi April!
00:06Hi April!
00:08Why are you standing like that?
00:10Are you used to standing like that?
00:12Well, it's just that the hosts are confused with us.
00:17Ah, so you're confused?
00:18Yes.
00:19But you're good, huh?
00:20She's good at twerking.
00:21Oh, you're good at twerking, huh?
00:24Auntie Jackie, I'm sorry if I tried to act like I'm confused.
00:28I'm just confused.
00:29She's just acting.
00:31She's just acting.
00:33How long have you been a breadwinner?
00:35I started in 2009.
00:38It's been almost 15 years.
00:40Yes, 15 years.
00:42What kind of work did you do to provide support to your family?
00:48Well, my first job was so that I could study.
00:54I was raised by my grandparents.
00:59I studied by myself because they couldn't support me anymore.
01:04They're old now.
01:06So that I could study, I joined a service group.
01:09How long did you serve?
01:1015 years.
01:11It's been a long time. I started when I was 15 years old.
01:13I was in the sideline with them.
01:15How many years did that last?
01:17Until I graduated from second year college.
01:21But at that time, I went to my real mother.
01:25Because she was close to the school where I was studying.
01:28When the time came for me to take a midterm exam,
01:31I asked her for a payment.
01:33But she didn't help me.
01:36She prioritized my other siblings.
01:38She said, you can take the exam when you graduate.
01:42I felt like I was blaming my mother
01:44for not being able to help me after she left me for so many decades.
01:49I felt like I was rebelling.
01:51My eldest daughter, Yuki, was pregnant.
01:55Because of my fear of my parents,
01:59I hid in Laguna.
02:01I worked hard there while I was taking the midterm exam.
02:05But as time went by, I grew up.
02:08I decided to go home.
02:10I was happy about that.
02:12My mom and dad accepted me.
02:14Until I gave birth to Yuki.
02:17I wasn't tired of working.
02:21But when you said that you were going back to Laguna,
02:25did you really study hard?
02:29Did you really study hard?
02:31No. I stopped studying because I was pregnant.
02:35My dad also studied hard.
02:39Yuki is a few years old now.
02:41She has nephrotic syndrome.
02:43What is that?
02:45She has nephrotic syndrome.
02:47She has been going out since I gave birth to her.
02:50She is still under maintenance.
02:52Until now, we are always in the hospital.
02:55She needs an adenomene.
02:58She needs this so that she can go back to normal.
03:01How many siblings do you have?
03:04We are all in the house.
03:07I support 13 siblings.
03:1013?
03:11Yes.
03:12How many siblings do you have?
03:14I have 4 siblings.
03:162 of them already have a family.
03:18I live with my brother.
03:21But my brother can't work because he has asthma.
03:28When I got home,
03:30my dad needed a CT scan
03:33for his lungs.
03:35His lungs were already open.
03:37I don't know who I am anymore.
03:41What do you mean?
03:44I don't know who I am anymore.
03:46Am I doing the right thing?
03:48So that I can give it to you.
03:50Because of the problems you are facing?
03:52Yes, because of the problems I am facing.
03:54At that time,
03:56when I came to Manila,
03:58I was chasing after a CT scan
04:00so that I can pay for it.
04:02I also went to the social service.
04:04We couldn't get the amount that we needed.
04:08Because it's expensive.
04:10CT scans are expensive.
04:12It's very expensive.
04:13But because of my bad luck,
04:16I wanted him to survive.
04:19I couldn't reach him.
04:22My dad passed away.
04:26It was hard for her to do everything she could
04:30to help her dad
04:32because she wanted to save him.
04:35Let's make it clear.
04:37Your dad is your grandfather,
04:39the one who raised you.
04:40Yes, we grew up with our grandparents.
04:42We were left there when we were very young.
04:48When the doors opened,
04:50I was introduced to Malaysia.
04:52We already had water.
04:54You worked abroad.
04:56How long did you work there?
04:58I stayed in Malaysia for one year.
05:00Until the pandemic started.
05:02I went home before the pandemic started.
05:05When the pandemic started,
05:07this was also the hardest part
05:09because I didn't know
05:11what to do,
05:13where to get maintenance,
05:15where to get milk,
05:17what to eat every day.
05:19I sold snacks,
05:21rice,
05:23everything I could.
05:25I even sold face shields.
05:28At that time,
05:30I entered a scholarship program.
05:33You studied again?
05:35Yes, I studied again.
05:37I told myself,
05:39I wouldn't be able to graduate
05:41because of what happened to me.
05:43But one day,
05:45I will be able to graduate.
05:47While I was studying,
05:49I was given an opportunity
05:51to go to Dubai.
05:53I went to Dubai.
05:55In fairness,
05:57she did a lot of things.
05:59She had a lot of experience.
06:01Were you happy
06:03when you were with your children?
06:05Yes, I was happy.
06:08I wanted to graduate
06:10this year.
06:12That's why I went home
06:14to the Philippines.
06:16The good thing is
06:18April learned
06:20from what happened.
06:22She finished college.
06:24Now,
06:26you're a sales associate.
06:28You have winning moments.
06:30I hope April continues
06:32to grow
06:34and be strong
06:36in life.
06:38We know it's hard.
06:40What do you want to say
06:42to your children?
06:44To my children,
06:46I know it's hard.
06:48I told you,
06:50I can do it.
06:52I will teach you
06:54as much as I can
06:56while my mom and aunt are alive.
06:58I will give you everything.
07:00Even my life.
07:02I will give it all to you.
07:04I love you, mom.
07:06Thank you for raising me
07:08to love my siblings
07:10and my children.
07:12Your mom is Lola Rosario.
07:14She's here with us today.
07:16Lola,
07:18do you have a message for us?
07:20Lola's glasses fell off.
07:24Have a good afternoon, Lola.
07:26Yes, Lola Rosario.
07:28My nose hurts
07:30that's why my glasses fell off.
07:32It's okay.
07:36Do you have anything to say
07:38to April, Lola?
07:40I'm about to cry.
07:42It's okay.
07:44I have something to say.
07:48I want to thank
07:50her for taking care
07:52of us,
07:54of me.
07:56I'm the one who raised
07:58four of them,
08:00including her children.
08:02I'm the one who took care of them.
08:04I just want
08:06to ask her
08:08to change
08:10her life
08:12and continue
08:14what she's doing.
08:16I don't want her
08:18to have more children.
08:20Four is enough.
08:22Because life is hard.
08:24She graduated in September
08:26and her life story
08:28is hard.
08:30Mom,
08:32I raised them
08:34and now I'm raising my grandchildren.
08:36It's a good thing
08:38that I'm still strong.
08:40Yes.
08:42You should be relaxed
08:44now.
08:46You're relaxing
08:48because of what you did
08:50when you were young.
08:52Even if she works
08:54far away,
08:57I can't do it anymore.
08:59That's true.
09:01It's hard.
09:03She's already 70 years old.
09:05Thank you so much.
09:07Now,
09:09I'm the one
09:11you're feeding
09:13and raising.
09:15Thank you, Grandma.
09:17It's like
09:19April's pet.
09:21Because you're taking care
09:23of her children.
09:25She's taking care
09:27of my children.
09:29Thank you, Joy.
09:31Love you.
09:33Are you thanking your grandma?
09:35Thank you, Mom.
09:37If it wasn't for you,
09:39April wouldn't exist.
09:41You wouldn't have April
09:43to support you.
09:45There's no April in the world
09:47who can give everything for you.
09:49I love you, Mom.
09:51Now that you've graduated
09:53and you have a job,
09:55do you have any dreams
09:57for yourself?
09:59I just wish
10:01I can fix my house
10:03that I made before.
10:05I just wish
10:07for my mom
10:09and my children
10:11to finish their studies.
10:13Because I'm not strong
10:15all my life.
10:17I'm here.
10:19So, it's just for them.
10:21I think you can do it, April.
10:23You're so smart.
10:25You're so hardworking.
10:27And you know,
10:29we can't
10:31leave sometimes
10:33when we make a decision
10:35because of our hard life.
10:37Right?
10:39There are people who make mistakes.
10:41She's discarding her income,
10:43her family's education.
10:45The best blessing
10:47is when you finish your studies.
10:49That's my gift
10:51to my mom and dad.
10:53Even if it's hard,
10:55even if I work day and night,
10:57when I was in Dubai,
10:59I'm still studying.
11:01So that I can prove
11:03that I have a bachelor's degree.
11:07Congratulations, April.

11:13who are going through this.
