An engineering employee, Ginalyn G. Quinio, having been disqualified to become a donor, approached Executive Director Alarcon to ask if she may be permitted to donate blood despite her ineligibility because her Father needs blood for transfusion which was scheduled on August 31, 2009, Monday. 
Aurio L. Quinio, Father of Ginalyn, had been suffering from Nephrities for three years, where only 10% of one from two (2) kidneys was working caused by the growth of polyp in his prostate (tubuloalveolar exocrine gland of the male). The father needs at least 2,000cc of 'Hemoglobin', also commonly known as Red Blood Corpucells, to alleviate the paleness and depletion of her crimson cells in the blood. The Platelet was likewise diminishing but can be contained once the four (4) bags of blood were infused in his system.
Mr. Alarcon encouraged Ginalyn to prepare the father's hospitalization as AG&PFI guaranteed four (4) bags of Blood for his speedy recovery, even if she had earlier been disqualified from donating. PNRC Chief of AG&PFI campaign, Dra. Turno, seconded the commitment and gave the engineer her assurance of blood. "This was practically the reason why we conducted the Blood Letting and Donation campaign. This will be our success story and this will be an inspiration we can share to the most needy" Mr. Alarcon exclaimed
The blood was delivered to the charity ward hall of San Jose District Hospital by AGPFI Marketing and Information Officer Ben S. Aclan 7AM, early Monday, where Ginalyn's father was confined. It was a teary meeting between Ka Aurio and Mr. Aclan. The patient was so thankful that he could not utter a word of gratefulness and in his eyes show gladness and appreciation as tears stream incessantly. Ka Aurio muttered "Salamat po Mr. Alarcon!" mistaking the representative to be the Executive Director of the AG&P Company of Manila Foundation, Inc. Mr. Renato M. Alarcon.
"I saw a tube attached in Ka Aurio's belly connected to a plastic bag under the hospital bed. I ask what it was and the patient said, 'Cateter' (surgical laparatomy, bedside, laparoscopic). It was like 'peritoneal dialysis' where the patient could no longer make use of his renal capacities to urinate. The insertion of a cateter to the urinary tract and kidney detour blood liquid cavities (in form of urine) to pass through the bag which serves as bladders." Mr. Aclan explains (The urinary bladder is the organ that collects urine excreted by the kidneys prior to disposal by urination).
Ka Aurio was alone because his two children needed to earn enough money to sustain the father's transfusion and future hospitalizations. The charity ward does not offer food, medicine or free potable water. All Ka Aurio has is his white shower towel and a spare of urine bag. No money to spend and no one to comfort him during the confinement.
AG&PFI Executive Director, Renato M. Alarcon, instructed Mr. Aclan to stay with Mr. Aurio until Ginalyn arrives from work. The 24 hour transfusion was successful. Two bags of blood where infused and the other two were saved for the next transfusion schedule. "His paleness diminished slowly and he was red. He can easily breathe now and he was speaking fluently after the procedures. I can see vibrant smiles in Ka Aurio's face immediately after the second bag was induced and he was drinking water for the first time after four (4) hours of waiting", Mr. Aclan narrated.
Ginalyn has to thank Angelic Fritzel Gamab, Rayman Loreja, Jeffrey Hernandez, Charlie Dinglasan, Apple Consolacion, Kim Bryan Garcia, Anna Rochelle Delgado and Ivan Pitalvero, of the AG&P Engineering Department, for the blood donations they made for Mr. Aurio Quinio. "The life they saved was their friends' dads'" says the AG&PFI representative.
