PGH Mothers

On May 10, 2020, twenty-five mothers were recognized by the administration of the Philippine General Hospital for their invaluable contribution to our fight in this Covid19 war. These brave women have shown a great deal of kindness and compassion as they perform essential tasks in the day to day operations of the hospital. They have placed their lives on the line and conquered their fears as they face the enemy without remorse. All of them would admit that they long for the day to be with their families especially their children, and yet, they would never quit, rendering service as a sworn duty. On this day, Miss Ces Drilon of ABS-CBN gave tokens of appreciation from ANC News and LAZADA company. She was assisted by PGH Director Dr. Gerardo D. Legaspi and PGH Spokesperson Dr. Jonas D. Del Rosario.

Six of these women were featured in ANCX of ABS-CBN “Voices from the Frontline”, a digital platform showing a series of videos, where our frontliners were featured.
