He has a job that could easily support his hobby as a rider, but because his mother is sick and bedridden, John Vincent Calleja Guiruela chose to prioritize her needs over his own. This earned him praise from the riding community and netizens on Facebook who saw his photo as he longingly looked at the helmets at a Spyder outlet.

“Priorities,” John Vincent wrote on his Facebook account. He did not have to elaborate what he meant, but it was clear that he wanted to buy a helmet from Spyder but he could not afford to do it because he had to buy the diapers. But because he was holding packs of adult diapers, this got netizens curious as to why he bought the stuff – for whom are the diapers for?

Obviously, the adult diapers are not for his baby. It turned out that John Vincent’s mother is bedridden. He did not even put that in his post, but because some commented about that on his behalf, he earned netizens’ admiration. Soon, the post would reach the brand – and Spyder Philippines prepared a surprise for this wonderful, thoughtful son.

“Priorities Part 2. Bakit kaya ako pinapadungaw ulit sa store?” John Vincent wrote, after he was invited back by the Spyder outlet at SM Legazpi in Legazpi, Albay where the photo was taken.

In photos, he described the wonderful surprise from Spyder Philippines. He narrated how he was invited back to the store where the store associates asked him to try some helmets on. When he found the one that fit perfectly, they gave it to him for free!

But the brand did not just give him a free helmet, he was also given additional adult diapers for his mother! So, John Vincent was able to once again pose outside the store with some packs of adult diapers for his mother – plus the new helmet he got for free from the company. Isn’t that awesome?
