26-year-old Rona Jane Juco
from San Fernando, Pampanga is the second winner in two days for the Shopee
Milyonaryo jackpot prize
Being a pregnant
mother is challenging enough, but being one during a pandemic is even more
daunting.
Rona Jane Juco is a
26-year-old pregnant woman who lives in San Fernando, Pampanga, with her
husband and their child. She works as a cashier at a furniture store, while her
husband works as a helper.
With her new baby due
next week, Rona feels apprehensive about giving birth while the world is in
chaos. She and her husband also worry that they might not have enough funds to
support their baby since they had to stop working for three months during the
quarantine.
Despite being
immunocompromised as a pregnant woman, Rona is determined to continue working
as much as she can to earn more money. “Nakakatakot
kasi may ganitong sitwasyon, pero ‘di naman ako pwedeng huminto sa trabaho kasi
baka mas mahirapan,” she said.
Rona started watching
Wowowin while in quarantine. She has now taken to watching the show during
lulls at work and often leaves comments for Kuya Will to call her. And last
November 10, he did so unexpectedly—while she was on a jeepney on the way home
from work!
It was Rona’s second
time to try out for Shopee Milyonaryo. While talking to Kuya Will, she flagged
the jeepney driver to let her out. It was while she was on the streets of San
Fernando that she won P1M.
Rona has plenty of
plans for her cash prize. She wants to use the money to finish construction on
their house, set up a rice retailing business and a sari-sari store, and of course, prepare for her baby’s arrival.
Rona also wants to show her appreciation to her mother-in-law, who takes her
child in while she and her husband are out working. “Gusto ko rin pong tulungan ‘yung mga kakilala ko na nahihirapan
ngayong pandemic,” she added.
