Happy Dos Santos at Tippy Dos Santos
BANGUNGOT para sa singer-actress na si Tippy Dos Santos ang pagkamatay ng kanyang nanay habang nagbabakasyon sa South Korea.
Hanggang ngayon ay hindi pa rin matanggap ni Tippy na wala na ang inang si Happy Dos Santos na pumanaw nitong nagdaang December 30 “due to traumatic brain injury.”
Naaksidente si Ginang Happy at ang kanyang asawang si John Dos Santos (na nagtamo rin ng mga sugat sa katawan) habang patungo sa tutuluyan sana nilang hotel sa South Korea kung saan sila magbabakasyon ng ilang araw.
“It’s a car accident. Their vehicle hit, it wasn’t another car, but it was like an excavator or something. It was a construction vehicle,” simulang pagbabahagi ni Tippy sa panayam ng ABS-CBN.
Pagpapatuloy ng singer at aktres, “I was asleep and my dad started calling me. I remember it (my phone) was just vibrating and I answered and he just told me na your mom and I got into an accident.

“They were just waiting for an ambulance and I remember he told me that he was not sure that my mom was breathing. And to tell our family members what’s going on,” aniya.
“My sister had just given birth last November so if there’s one person who can go there right away, it was me. After an hour or two, nag-book na ako ng flight and I was on a flight to Korea at 2 p.m. that day,” patuloy pa ni Tippy na nakasama ang kanyang mga tiyahin.
“My aunt was also a doctor so she was the one talking to the staff at the Korean hospital. And she told me that it is important to be able to see my mom first in the ICU before going to see my dad,” pag-alala pa niya.
Ayon sa mga doktor, nagtamo ang tatay ni Tippy ng “five to six fractured ribs and minor abdominal injury/trauma” habang ang kanyang ina “suffered rib bleeding, fractures and a head injury.”
Pagpapatuloy ni Tippy sa naturang panayam, “On the morning of the 30th, Saturday, my sister got a call that we are being called to go to the hospital. As soon as possible.
“When we arrived at the hospital, they said that my mom, her pulse was going down and nag-stop na ‘yung breathing niya for nine seconds. But that they were able to revive her, but her BP (blood pressure) was really down.
“And then they told us that there was really no hope for her because after that they had taken a scan and there was no brain stem activity. And that there was no hope.

“That she was not gonna recover from the injury. And that’s when they asked us to prepare and to really just wait,” kuwento ni Tippy.
Lumuluhang sabi ng aktres at abogada, “My mom was full of life and none of us are ready to lose my mom. Not just our family you know, my dad was married to my mom for almost 37 years, my sister just had a baby.
“I just moved to a house near her house, and not just her immediate family but so many people love my mom. So many people know how great of a person she is, she is so much light, joy and happiness.
“She is an incredible wife, mother and friend, and a sister and she loved everyone around her, everyone she met. She deserved better.
“She deserved better than to be in a coma and to possibly die that way. How I wish we had just more time para makapagpasalamat at makapagsabi na mahal namin siya,” aniya pa sa panayam ng ABS-CBN News.
Sa ngayon, inaayos na ng pamilya ni Tippy ang pag-uwi sa labi ni Ginang Happy sa Pilipinas, “We’re eager to bring her home before her birthday on January 5.”
