- Grab rider tells the story of how her driver helped her reach the hospital as she suffers from a heart attack.
- Driver braves the streets to help get his customer at the hospital as she suffers from a heart attack.
In spite of all the complaints made to Grab about the behavior of their drivers, there are still kind souls out there.
Last June 24, Facebook user Katrina Andrea Jaena Tolentino stated how this Grab driver helped her reach the hospital immediately as soon as she told him that she’s having a heart attack.
In her post, she narrated how Arnel Oyardo Lunar braved the streets just to bring Tolentino to the hospital on time.
In the post, she first told the driver not to panic but it looks like she’s suffering from a heart attack. She can reach the hospital but the driver needs to speed up in order to be there on time. After she told Lunar her condition, the driver lowered his window and began telling other drivers to make way.
When they got to the hospital, the driver took care of her belongings and according to her sister, even waited and canceled bookings just to make sure she’s safe.
Tolentino’s willing to thank the driver personally after she gets discharged but she hopes that her post will reach him to inform him of her appreciation.
“Tonight, I thought that it was my final destination already, I was alert and was telling myself: “Nope, not today.” And I’m thankful that I have this Superman with me who saved my life. Sabi ko: “Kuya, wag kang magpapanic ah, (akala nya hold up) pero ako na bahala sa sarili ko, muhkhang inaatake ako sa puso, kaya kong umabot sa ospital basta ang gagawin mo lang is bilisan at gawin lahat para makalusot tayo sa daan” Walang sabi sabi, he lowered down his windows and was shouting “Tabi!!! Tabi!!!”
Like I was running for Presidency. And in less than 5 min. I was in the hospital. He took care of my belongings and my sister said that he was waiting outside patiently, cancelled 2 bookings just to make sure that I am ok. Dunno how I can thank him personally or maybe I’ll just contact grab after I’m discharged. But for now, If you guys can help me spread and share this, I hope it’ll reach him in time. Salute to you Kuya Arnel!”
