Tonight, October 24, watch as we help make
heartwarming transformations in two people’s lives in
"Emergency."
These patients you once saw featured in the
show will experience a new kind of hope.
Randy Cruz’ hands and feet continue to grow
hard, thick and dry calluses. This condition has made it
difficult for him to look for a job. Because of thick and
heavy fingers, even a simple activity like eating is quite a
challenge for him. He hopes that a cure for his disease known
as Keratoderma will soon be discovered. Otherwise, he wishes
that something would be found to alleviate his discomfort and
pain.
Annabel Manuel has been in the hospital for
two years. A cancerous tumor that started from a mole grew and
eventually consumed her face. The tumor was removed but it
left a big, empty hole on her face. Her own kids could not
even recognize her. She desperately wants to go home, but the
frightened faces of her children discourage her.
"Emergency" will document the
transformation of these two patients as they undergo
reconstructive surgery and reunite with their families.
Watch the first part of the 13th anniversary episode of
television’s longest-running public affairs show, "Emergency"
tonight with Arnold Clavio, right after "Saksi" on GMA-7.
