00:13Edsil!
00:17Lex!

00:21He was found in Myanmar while looking for his wife, Alexis Gail,
00:27and Edsil Jess Adalid.

00:34Sky Villa Condominium,
00:36in the city of Mandalay,
00:37which is closest to the epicenter of the magnitude 7.7 earthquake.
00:42Get your Edsil!
00:47Lex!
00:49In this area, the Filipinos are looking for their loved ones
00:52because they saw Alexis' brown jacket hanging here.
00:57Under this sofa is the wife's room
01:00which is on the 9th floor of Tower D.
01:03Last night, their family prayed in Bae City in Negros Oriental
01:08for their safety.
01:10We were struck by a candle,
01:13by lightning, by a miracle,
01:16by two candles.
01:19They are still alive.
01:22I can't accept this, Ed.
01:25They will be gone.
01:26We are proud of our son.
01:28He is a good boy.
01:29He is a good boy.
01:31But no matter what happens to the Filipinos of the government,
01:36we dream that they are still alive.
01:39We don't know if they are still alive.
01:43We want to ask everybody who can see this video,
01:48keep praying
01:50that we will be able to receive a miracle
01:54for Alex and Edsil
01:56that they are found
01:58or they will be found alive.

02:02Francis Aragon,
02:04who also lives in Sky Villa Condominium
02:06on the 6th floor of Tower D.
02:08This is what Tower D looks like
02:10based on the picture that was sent to Francis' wife.
02:14We don't know where he is,
02:16if he went out of the condo
02:18or if he is still trapped there.
02:20I have no idea.
02:22I just want to find him
02:24and see him as soon as possible.
