I will forever be thankful, grateful and I am blessed to have all your love, support and help in one of my yet again, tough, painful and scariest 3 week battle. Kahit po naging matigas ang ulo ko dahil ayaw pa-hospital????.”
She added, “Anak, I am a blessed mother for having such a patient, loving, kind son. Thank you for taking good care of me. I know ‘twas not easy @niotria ?❤️? Bayz @thejozen_1 , thank you for all your prayers, reading to me the Word of God and my lullaby (through phone) in one of my most difficult nights??❤️? To my sweet Jesus, my Divine mercy, my Padre Pio @sanpadrepioph and my Mama Mary❤️❤️❤️???.”
