The tragic earthquake in Haiti may have happened far from the country, but its effects were still felt in the Philippines, especially by the families of Filipinos working there.

One of these overseas workers is Donna Bacurin, who bravely clawed herself from the wreckage and reunite with her husband. Join Ces Drilon-Oreña as she listens to his story on “I Survived” this Thursday (Feb 25) on ABS-CBN.

It was January 12 when a magnitude 7.0 earthquake shook Haiti and destroyed infrastructures including the office of United Nations in Port-au-Prince. Bacrin, an assistant manager, was in the third floor when their building started to shake and crumble.

She hid under a table when it started to shake, but she was still pinned down by heavy cement, hurting his arms and legs. Despite this, Bacurin managed to squeeze herself out of the rubble. Outside, she saw her husband Gregorio who was also looking for her in the ruins.

After two days in their friend’s home, the couple finally received medical attention from fellow Filipinos who were there to help out earthquake victims.

Relive their life-threatening yet heartwarming experience with Ces Drilon on “I Survived” this Thursday (Feb 25), after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN.
