Singer-songwriter Ebe Dancel took to Facebook his open letter for medical workers and frontliners amid the “timeout” call of the healthcare groups and go back to Enhanced Community Quarantine the Mega Manila.
“Dear Medical Workers and Frontliners,
Pasensya na po kayo. Magsuot lang ako ng mask, napapagod na ako minsan. Ikaw pa kayang naka PPE buong araw. Minsan di na kayo makakain at makapagbanyo.”, Dancel compared his little inconvenience of wearing a mask to the struggle of the healthworkers on wearing PPEs and the need to skip meals and take a break to use the restroom to fulfill their duty.
“May mga mahal ako sa buhay na mga doktor. Araw araw, nangangamba ako para sa kanila. Sana hindi sila magkasakit. Sana makapagpahinga sila sa gitna ng dami ng pasyenteng kailangang alaagan.”
He revealed he has love ones who are doctors. Everyday, he worries and hope they’re always healthy as many patients are need to take care.
“Kung hindi dahil sa iyo at mga katulad mo, pano na kaya kaming mga ordinaryong mga mamamayan?”, he reflected.
Moreover, the singer revealed he tried to stop his tears to fall while he was writing the open letter.
“Ang totoo, pinipigilan ko ang luha ko ngayon habang ginagawa ko ang liham na ito para sa yo.”
“Alam kong pagod na pagod ka na, marami ka pang maririnig tapos makakalimutan pang pasalamatan. Baka minsan nararamdaman mong parang wala ka nang maibibigay. Bilib na bilib ako sa yo at sa mga sakripisyo mo para sa bayan.”, he shared his appreciation to country’s frontliners.
“Biyaya ka sa akin at sa buong Pilipinas.” he declared.
“Alam kong kulang ka na sa tulog. Baka nga di mo pa mabasa ito eh. Ok lang sa akin. At ok din lang na mapagod, pero pakiusap, wag mo kaming susukuan.”, Dancel told the healthcare workers to cheer up and please not to give up.
“Kasi hindi rin kita susukuan. Hihintayin kita.”, he added.
Ebe Dancel promised he’ll play and sing their favorite songs once the pandemic ends.
“Pagkatapos ng pandemyang ito, kapag pumunta ka sa show ko, magpakilala ka lang at yayakapin kita at tutugtugin ko ang mga paborito mong kanta ko.”
“Mag ingat ka sana palagi at wag mong papabayaan ang iyong sarili.”, he wrote.
