A nine-year-old boy in Mangaldan, Pangasinan suffered second-degree burns after accidentally bumping into his mother as she carried a pot of freshly cooked labong, or bamboo shoots.

According to a report on GMA’s Balitanghali, the child was running inside their house when he collided with his mother. She was holding the pot containing the bamboo shoots and newly boiled water at the time.

The collision caused the hot liquid to scald the boy. What began as an ordinary activity at home resulted in injuries that required hospital care.

His mother recounted the circumstances of the accident in the report. Her account described how her son’s movement through the house brought him into contact with her while she was carrying the hot pot.

The report identified his injuries as second-degree burns. It did not specify how much of his body was affected or provide a detailed assessment of his condition.

The family also faced another difficulty after the accident: paying for his treatment.

According to the news segment, the mother eventually brought her son home because they did not have enough money for his hospital expenses. The report explained that “wala silang sapat na perang pampagamot sa ospital.”

That financial constraint was central to the family’s situation. The mother’s decision to take the child home was attributed to their lack of funds. The supplied report did not say that he had completed treatment or that his injuries had healed.

Meanwhile, officials of Barangay Anulid were preparing assistance for the mother and child.
