Naging hero na siya sa mga kapatid niya,&quot; she added.(I was amazed because he didn&#x27;t even think about what was happening to him. He became a hero to his siblings.)According to Talamisan-Remot, the eldest sibling suffered third-degree burns. He and his siblings are currently in the hospital for treatment and recovery.The fire reached the first alarm but was quickly contained, affecting only three homes, according to the barangay&#x27;s purok leader.
