The Sutherland Family Nursing Award for Excel-lence was presented April 6 to Luz Conde, RN, unit coor-dinator, Surgical Intensive Care Unit (SICU) at the Uni-versity of Kansas Medical Center.

A special recognition cere-mony was held at the KU Medical Center to present the award to Conde. She was also recognized with an article in the KUMC employee publica-tion “In the Center”.

The nurse manager of the SICU unit, Anne Sass, spoke at the ceremony and noted Conde’s community involve-ment, service as a mentor to other SICU nurses and partici-pation in the nurse shadow

program. As winner of the annual

nursing award, Conde receives a $1000 award which is admin-istered by the Kansas Univer-sity Endowment Association. This award is funded by the family of Norma Sutherland and the late Dwight Suther-land, a KU alum.

A graduate of the Chinese General Hospital School of Nursing in the Philippines, Conde immigrated to the United States in 1979 and started working in SICU at the KU Medical Center in 1980. Source: In the Center, April 15, 2004, University of Kansas Medical Center.

Important Portraits in One’s Life In recognition of Father’s Day, commentary and poem sub-mitted by Vi Cortez Ignacio, Ph.D.

PARENTHOOD is the world’s most intensive and most difficult course in love. After all is said and done, the most important part of a child’s background at any time of a “LIFELINE” is the love and companionship of his/her parents. It is a fact that the best gifts in life are the parent’s unconditional love, compassion, patience, un-derstanding, willingness to sacrifice, kindness, empathy, courage, endurance, and trust in the SUPREME BEING.

Being a parent is better than a course in THEOLOGY. It is gener-ally accepted that the most important fundamental right of child-hood is the right to be loved. As a child comes to this world alone, helpless, and defenseless, unconditional love must be given to the child for only love can stand between his/her infant helplessness and the savagery of a world full of hostilities, atrocities, uncertain-ties and challenges.

Each child is unique, a special creation of GOD with talents, abili-ties, personality, preferences, dislikes, likes, potentials, strengths, weaknesses, skills, and intelligence that are his/her own. To par-ents, it is an obligation to seek to identify these in each child and help him/her become the person God intended.

It should be realized that love and discipline are the foundations of training a child. Love is essential from infancy through growing years. Without discipline, one can not hope to teach a child to be respectful, competent, honest, reasonable, and responsible adult, saved from being prejudiced.

Specifically, to a father the relationship with the child is “one-of-a-kind” as no one else will ever be a “Dad” to him/her. It becomes imperative to demonstrate the heavenly father’s never-ending love by showing that child his own unconditional love for a father is a man who is always learning how to love. He knows that his love must grow and change because his children grow and change.

Being a father is teaching an offspring that when he/she is criti-cized, injured, afraid, or disciplined, there is a father who is ready to give comfort, who will hold him/her until one is felling better, help him/her until the child can live with the pain, won’t go to sleep when he/she is afraid of waking up and seeing the dark. To his child, he is strength, security, an example, and number one friend. He is a fellow who replaced the currency in his wallet with snapshots of his family.

A father is the head of a unit of people launched on an exploration of life and all the things that GOD has placed in this world for us to discover and enjoy. He is the “big guy” closest to one’s heart.

And to all the fathers in this cosmos:

ONLY A FATHER CAN GIVE IT ALL, TO CLEAR THE WAY FOR HIS OFFSPRINGS SMALL DOING WITH COURAGE, STERN, AND GRIM, THE KIND DEEDS THAT HIS FATHER DID FOR HIM; THESE ARE THE TRIBUTES THAT FOR HIM I PEN TRULY A DAD, AND THE BEST OF MEN

TO THE WORLD HE’S NOTHING SPECIAL, OH, HE IS GENTLE AND MADE GOD SO REAL, LIKE A STURDY TREE WITH BRANCHES LOFTY; GOD, FOR MY FATHER, I DO THANK THEE.

AND MY FATHER IS MY FOREVER IDOL, WHOSE MEMORIES ARE SWEET, BITTER AND ALL WHO SHOWERED ME WITH FAITH, LOVE AND UNDER-STANDING; NO ONE CAN REPLACE YOU IN MY HEART REVEALING.

HAPPY FATHER’S DAY! NAMASTE!

Vi Cortez Ignacio, Ph. D.

FAGKC Presents Honor Roll Students

Bayanihan

Page 4 Tambul i June 2004

Ano ang "Bayanihan"? Ito ay isang salita na nagsasaad ng "Tulungan". Kung ating gugunitain ng tayo ay mga bata pa, (lalo na't kung kayo ay laki sa lalawigan), nakakita na kayo marahil ng isang buong bahay na pangkaraniwan ang laki na inililipat sa ibang lugar. Kung minsan ay nakapatong ang bahay sa isa o dalawang kariton, na sa halip na hinihila ng kala-baw ay pulos kalalakihan ang nagtutulak nito. Kung minsan naman kung walang kariton, ay nakasuksok sa ilalim ng bahay ang mga mahahabang kawayan na nag-tatagusan sa bawat gilid na tama lang sa mga taong bubuhat.

Masaya silang pagmasdan dahil pagbi-lang ng namumuno ay sabay-sabay nila itong itataas at sabay-sabay na ilalakad ang binubuhat na bahay. May isa o dalawa naman na ang gawain ay itaas ang mga nadadaanang kawad ng koryente sa pamamagitan ng sungkit. Gaano man kabigat ang bahay ay nailili-pat nila ng parang kay gaan. Bakit? Dahil, dala nila sa kanilang puso at kaisipan ang espiritu ng "Bayanihan".

Sa ating bansa ay may grupo ng mga sumasayaw na kung tawagin ay

"Bayanihan" din. Kay ganda nilang pag-masdan lalo't sabay-sabay ang kanilang mga kilos. Dahil nagtutulong-tulong sila sa iba't-ibang parte ng programa ay nag-kakaroon sila ng oras para huminga matapos ang isang sayaw.

Isipin natin, kung tayo ay magisang bubuhat ng bahay, makakaya kaya natin ito? Hindi ang sagot!

Ganuon din ito sa ating asosasyon. Kung hindi tayo magtutulung-tulong, madaling malalagutan ng hininga ang sinumang namumuno. Gaya ngayong nalalapit na ang Fiesta Filipina, sana tayong lahat ay magyakap-yakap at pag-tulungan natin ang lahat ng mga gawain. Magboluntaryo tayo ng kahit ilang oras. Masusuerte tayo dahil may mga ka-samahan tayo na nagmamalasakit sa ating "community". Dapat ay atin silang tulungan, pasiklabin natin sa ating dam-damin ang espiritu ng "Bayanihan". Ma-kikita ninyo't ang lahat ng ating mga ga-wain ay gagaan. Tayo na mga kababa-yan,at ating buhayin ang ating samahan laging masaya, at puno ng "BAYANIHAN SPIRIT"!!
