June 21, 2008: The MV Princess of the Stars, a 23,824-ton ferry, capsizes off central Sibuyan Island in a typhoon. Villagers find six bodies, while only four survivors are found in the initial hours of search efforts.
I was one of the outgoing staffs earlier when I heard this news from the transistor radio of my patient. The said sea vessel is believed to carry more than 800 people including crew as it sank near the province of Romblon.
Actually I had no idea there was a typhoon because most of the time I am asleep after work which is on the usual night shift. So when I heard the news that Manila is under signal number 3 I freaked out a bit because I was so clueless about it.
I am safe, despite the fact that the town where I’m residing is under the State of Calamity. I’m worried about the others who are not safe, I hope they will be fine soon.
I’m from Vermont, USA, and just wanted to let you know that we’re thinking about all of you, and hoping for all the best.
