‘Senador Manny Villar, lumuwa ang buwa’


Lumuwa ang buwa ni Senador Manuel Villar kahapon matapos habol-habulin ang mga nakawalang itik sa isang bukid habang siya’y nag-shu-shooting ng kanyang bagong commercial, ayon sa mga ulat.

Kaagad dinala sa St. Luke’s Medical Center ang senador upang tahiin at muling isuksok ang kanyang buwa.

Ayon sa mga doktor, nasa mabuting kalagayan si Villar at makalalabas na mula sa hospital sa loob ng dalawa o tatlong araw. Hindi naman anila maaapektuhan ang kakayanan ng senador na manganak muli.

Ang “buwa” ay “uterus” sa Ingles at kadalasang nakikita lamang sa mga kababaihan. Ngunit mayroon ding mga lalaki ang mayroong buwa tulad ni Villar. Ayon sa research, isa sa isang milyong kalalakihan ang mayroong buwa. Samantala, ang pagluwa ng buwa ay tinatawag na “prolapsed uterus” na nangyayari sa iba’t ibang kadahilanan tulad ng marahas na pag-iri o iba pang pisikal na aktibidad.

Nalaman ng Good Times Manila na nangyari ang insidente habang tinatapos ng senador ang shooting ng bago nyang commercial kung saan makikita siyang nagpapastol ng mga itik.

Habang naglalakad ang senador ay biglang nagtatakbo ang mga itik sa iba’t ibang direksyon na ikinabigla ni Villar. Kaagad umanong hinabol ng senador ang mga itik ngunit lalo lamang kumaripas ang mga ito.

Nadapa at nagpagulong-gulong umano ang senador sa putik habang hinahabol ang mga itik.

Dahil dito, dumugo at lumuwa ang buwa ni Villar at kaagad itong sinugod sa ospital. Nagpadala naman kaagad ng mga bulaklak sina Vice President Noli De Castro at mga senador na sina Loren Legarda, Chiz Escudero at Mar Roxas.

Samantala, ayon sa isang mapagkakatiwalaang source, may nakarinig umano kay Senador Panfilo “Ping” Lacson na mag-komentong gusto rin nitong magkaroon ng buwa. “Ano ba yung buwa?

Pano ba pwedeng magkaron non?” ani Lacson.

Mula sa ospital, isang maikling pahayag ang iniwan ni Villar: “Ngayon, alam ko na talaga ang naramdaman ni Aling Neneng from Riyadh. Sa sobrang sakit, dumugo, lumuwa ang buwa
ko.”

CORRECTION: Not “Aling Virgie” as earlier reported but “Aling Neneng.” Thanks, star! :D

Swine flu reaches RP shores, claims first victim – Jinggoy


The dreaded swine flu virus, or H1N1 virus, has reached the Philippines and claimed its first victim, Sen. Jinggoy Estrada, the only confirmed case so far of the disease in the country, health authorities said Wednesday.

Estrada had reportedly been exhibiting flu-like symptoms since last week in addition to other possible signs of swine flu, like taking on a “porcine appearance” and other pig-like characteristics, Health Secretary Francisco Duque said.

Pig

Not Jinggoy

The health department is monitoring five other people in the country after they exhibited flu-like symptoms in the past weeks, the official said.

Late Tuesday night the senator was rushed to the intensive care unit of the Cardinal Santos Memorial Medical Center in San Juan City after he complained of “high fever,coughing, vomiting and making involuntary oink noises.”

His wife, children and immediate family, including former President Joseph Estrada, had been placed under quarantine in the hospital to prevent the spread of the highly contagious disease, Duque said.

Previously, Estrada was also confined to a hospital bed after he had an infection as a result of a botched liposuction procedure.

“He’s doing fine,” Duque told reporters. He said Estrada’s case was confirmed to be swine flu after his symptoms were accompanied by certain “telling changes” in his body.

“His snout started protruding and became pointier. He really looked more and more like a pig,” Duque said. “I mean if you placed him side by side with a pig, you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.”

He said Estrada also could no longer use a spoon and a fork and would eat his grub by “digging his snout into the plate” and making “disgusting smacking and slurping noises as he ate.”

Before he was wheeled into the ICU, Estrada had a message for his family, supporters and constituents:

“Please pray for me and my familoink. I hope we will be okayoink. I pray that my conditioink will not spreadoink elsewhere in the countroink. Maramoink maramoink salamat poink!”
