Maybe the saddest part of being an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) is getting sick abroad, no family by your side and no one care for you, and the worst thing, you end up on the street, you are being thrown out in the house of your employer because you are now useless.
This is what happened to unnamed domestic helpers in Hong Kong, who, according to a Facebook post of Maria Elizabeth Embry is a victim of maltreatment and abuse.
In the post, the OFW is being thrown out in the street from the apartment of her employer at 2:30 in the morning, despite that the domestic worker is suffering from cancer and acute renal failure.
