Nag-donate na si Iza Calzado ng blood plasma matapos siyang makaligtas sa coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).

Sa kaniyang Instagram post, sinabi ng aktres na ilang beses siyang nabigo na mag-donate ng plasma dahil mababa ang kaniyang hemoglobin.

Nitong Martes, pinayagan na raw siyang mag-donate at ginawa niya nitong Biyernes.
"I never knew that giving my blood would be such an emotional moment for me," saad niya. "Perhaps it's because, as a Covid-19 Survivor, I truly felt that this was one of the most powerful ways I could help my fellow Filipinos during this time."

Ayon kay Iza, espesyal na araw sa kaniya ang June 12 dahil bukod sa araw ito ng kasarinlan ng bansa, ito rin ang kaarawan ng kaniyang ina.

Kaya naman daw mas naging mas makahulugan daw ang petsang ito sa kaniya.

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

June 12 has always been a special day because it is my Mother’s birthday and the independence day of my Motherland. ???????? This year, it became even more meaningful. After failing several tests to be an eligible plasma donor for Covid-19, because of low hemoglobin levels, I was cleared to donate last Tuesday. I never knew that giving my blood would be such an emotional moment for me. Perhaps it’s because, as a Covid-19 Survivor, I truly felt that this was one of the most powerful ways I could help my fellow Filipinos during this time. As the doctor played “Bayan Ko” my tears and my blood flowed. It gave me so much hope to think that maybe I could help restore someone’s health and that, through our collective efforts, we can restore our country’s well being and make it better. Love and Light! ??????????????????

Nang makaligtas sa sakit, nabanggit noon ni Iza na nakaramdam siya ng "guilt feeling" dahil may  mga pasyenteng nasawi sa virus. Kaya masaya raw siyang makapag-donate ng plasma na maaaring makasagip ngayon ng buhay ng ibang pasyente.

"As the doctor played 'Bayan Ko' my tears and my blood flowed," saad niya.
