CITY OF MALOLOS – As a result of his grueling official schedule, Bulacan Governor Daniel R. Fernando is now in stable condition after he suffered a medical emergency due to over fatigue and dehydration while speaking at an event as part of Singkaban Festival 2023.
In the past couple of weeks, Fernando has been actively conducting daily relief operations in various locations all throughout the province to ensure the welfare of his constituents affected by a series of typhoons and monsoon rains.
It was known that during an LGBT event on Monday (Sept. 11) at the Bulacan Capitol Gymnasium, Fernando suddenly halted and canceled his speech, apparently feeling unwell. He was immediately brought to the hospital.
The governor was attended to by his cardiologist, Dr. Berwyn Flores, who confirmed on Wednesday that the reason for the governor’s “irregular gestures at the event was exhaustion, over fatigue and dehydration.”
His doctors advised also the governor to undergo medical workups to ensure his overall good health.
In an official statement of provincial government released on Wednesday morning, “sa ngayon po ay kasalukuyang nagpapahinga at maganda na ang kalagayan sa tulong ng Panginoon. Ayon po sa kanyang doktor ay nasobrahan lamang po sa pagod at dehydrated ang ating People’s Governor.”
Fernando expressed deep gratitude for the good wishes, prayers, and messages of concern from his family, friends, fellow public servants, and Bulacan citizens.
Dr. Berwyn Flores said the governor is able to carry out his public duties “without disruption” and is expected to come back in full swing after a few days of adequate rest. (UnliNews Online)
