Many waited to be saved on the roofs of their houses. Many were separated from their loved ones. Many lost the items they sell for a living or even the clothing they wear. Many had to cramp in evacuation centers. Many are hungry. Many are cold.
Some hospitals got flooded and lost power giving their patients an even more difficult time. Some lost their loved ones.

But on the bright side, many were heroes - braving the heavy rains and the current of the flood just to save their kababayans (countrymen); creating awareness and informing the public of people who need help (making #RescuePH part of the top trending on Twitter in the Philippines); and helping out in relief operations with their time, effort, and donations in their schools or in evacuation centers.
It sums up to many of our country men are facing hard times right now. Many of us were and are blessed to be safe in the comforts of our homes. Let us do what we can to help.
