Raul Della Eslao
Raul Della Eslao, 53, a graduate of UP Integrated School, UP Diliman College of Architecture and a registered nurse, succumbed to the virus while fighting in the frontline in Michigan, USA where he worked.
“I cannot stay at home, I’m a nurse” was a hashtag that went with his new profile picture in his final Facebook posting on March 19.
Twelve days later Raul Della Eslao paid the ultimate price for his heroism. He died, a friend commented on Facebook, so others may live.
