September 8 of 2017. It was my birthday. We had to celebrate two things: my birthday and Aeron's recovery from bronchitis. We ate in Cabalen Restaurant with my dear Mommy. Little did I know, that would be the last time I would be with my Mommy alive.


In October of the same year (2017), Mommy was diagnosed with Leukemia. A rare blood cancer. The world literally fell on me. I ask God, why her? She had to be confined in the hospital for chemotherapy. 10 days of gruesome experience. I was there when she was poked with different needles - the most painful sight. Before she died in the ICU, I was in the hospital chapel crying and praying that He would not take Mommy. I lost my voice from crying. But she lost her battle anyway. We lost her on October 26, 2017, at around lunchtime. I lost my true love. I lost the only person who was with me in the happy and sad times of my life. The only person who helped me emotionally, and financially without asking for anything in return. I questioned my faith. When she died, she took my HEART, my FAITH, and my WHOLE LIFE with her. I died in 2017 with her. No one noticed because there was no blood.
