Diagnosed With Pneumonia After My 4th Cycle On Chemotherapy Treatment!

-
Some of the greatest blessings in this world come from God’s power in the midst of trials. God changes us, molds us, strengthens us, and builds us through hardship. And there is nothing like the experience of being comforted by God alone in that dark hour.

We must realize that sometimes it’s just not God’s plan to heal or to fix a problem quickly for us. And that’s ok. He still loves us. He still has a plan. And He still has a profound purpose for that pain that can end up blessing us beyond anything we could ever imagine.

Often God chooses to heal. But sometimes He teaches us more and draws us closer when we walk the dark mile of suffering. But to experience such blessing, it is important that we run to God and not away from Him in the midst of the storm. 

God bless our medicine, Doctor Ignacio, Nurses, and Laban Tayo Sol Team 


Thank you so much Doctor Jorge Ignacio for reminding me again of God's plan and timing. Experiencing God's grace gives us great hope in the power of prayer. "Malayo pa talaga, di pa talaga ako kasya sa butas ng karayom." 


Lovely Levi!

My dear Antonio!
My dearest partner, and my number 1 supporter in all my battle!

Healing Prayer, Healing Doctor and Medical Healing Works Together!

-
Image
According to this passage from the Bible, when we are sick we should pray to the Lord AND call the doctor, for in many cases it may be that the Lord will use the physician as the primary source of healing. The key is to let our Lord be in charge, and not dictate to Him the ways in which you want Him to help you. Let Him use all the means at His disposal-we are just to trustfully surrender to His care: "Cast all your care on the Lord, for He cares for you" ( I Peter 5:7). Both healing prayer and medical care, in the end, all come down to that little prayer at the bottom of the Image of the Divine Mercy: 'Jesus, I trust in You." In other words, "Jesus, I completely entrust myself to You. I hand over my whole condition to You (body, mind, and spirit) for strength and guidance, and for being made whole again according to Your will because I trust completely in Your merciful love for me, which always greater than I can ask, or even imagine." We see this reflecte...

For Every Heart That Listens, There Is A Voice That Speaks!

I wake up very early today. Bright sunshine makes me smile. The breeze makes me calm and thinks about how far I've been in my roller coaster journey. "Kahit gaano katagal ang gabi, darating din ang umaga." It's been a year now, The 1st time in my life is scary but I never let fear stop me from doing the right thing. These past years I've learned a lot. No school needed to learn the exact value of time. Your heart will teach you in your own language. After a lot of asking, God speaks in the silence of my heart. Thank you, Lord. I was so overwhelmed with gratitude for what God had done, I am on my 19th Chemotherapy Cycle now and need to continue more treatment. If you will ask me how many more are left? I still don't know. I still have a tumor, a mass on my liver, and that I believe God can melt if he will. God has a plan for all of us. What matters to me now is that I am alive and my hair keeps growing. I always check it to make sure it's still there. That ...

Where There is Family, There is Love! Here, There, And Everywhere!

I saw the sun shining so brightly this morning. It made me remember my siblings and how blessed I am that God has given them to me. Let me thank my family with these simple clips for taking care of me ever since I was born and for all kinds of support they are extending to me and my husband Tony now in my roller coaster journey. Thank you for my father, for enduring every hard day to be able to provide for us and never complains. Even on his weak days, he remains strong and hard working to provide us with a good life here on earth. On September 1, 1982, he went to heaven.  Thank you for my mother who loves us unconditionally just like Mary loved Jesus. She provided us with breakfast food on the table which was very delicious. When my father died, she continues teaching piano to support me and my youngest brother. On April 22, 2001, she went home to heaven.  Thank you for the gift of siblings, Lord. Life would be so dull without them. They are my first best f...

Live Day By Day, One At A Time!

Read More:  Facebook Memories "Journey of Love, Faith, Hope, and Rainbow" October 15, 2019  In case I die unexpectedly, and I will be gone forever, let my simple thoughts be yours, for as long as someone cares I will always live in their hearts.  I am only 54 years old, yet I have actually already chosen my last white dress. It’s the one that I will wear to my funeral. It may be an old one, but I think it’s perfect for the occasion.  The overwhelming diagnosis came to me 3 months ago, now I'm always longing for long life, everything is now uncertain.  But I realized that the most important thing about death is to ensure that you leave this world a little better than it was before you existed with your contributions. The way I’ve lived my life so far, my existence or more precisely the loss of it, will not matter because I have lived without doing anything special.  Before, there were so many things that occupied my mind. When I learned how much time I had l...

Jesus King of Mercy I trust in you! Face your fear so the shadow will go behind. It's easy to get afraid but my Lord, Jesus Christ put courage and hope in my heart. He is fighting for me and he is always with me. (Exodus 14:14) November 30, 2021 1st CT Scan comparison to my previous CT Scan October 2021, after 3 months of my IMRT completion. My Liver CT Scan is for my every after 4th Avastin 400mg IV infusion monitoring development and for my next chemotherapy cycle 29th treatment. YouTube Video Thank you so much, father God for the smooth and happy CT Scan procedure today. I may not understand all your messages for me, but I always felt your healing manifestation in my heart. Today I experience something very new. I felt the coldness of the IV Contrast while it's running inside my veins. At first, I thought it was leaking and when the Radiologist check it it's not and I check it too he is right. Whatever it is, it's not the normal way. I remember it was supposed to be ...

The Unveiling Of My Baby Hair!

-
Image
To God be all the glory! Yehey! Madami na ulit hair ko, though bungi-bungi pa kilay ko ayus na rin. If ever, balding returns I think I can handle it more bravely. Wink! My husband noticed that my hair is increasing in volume and he never forget to touch my hair and remind me that it is a sign of life. Behind his back, I always felt my tears down on my cheeks just knowing that I am really gaining back my hair. It's like a baby in my mother's womb that waiting for the exact number of days to complete me and be born.  I just realize that I love short hair on me. My new baby hair or Virgin hair turns soft, wavy, and silky. This gives me a little fun to consider my new look, seems I want to try new looks as my hair gets longer and makes it feel more fun rather than pain (though it definitely can be). I tried to treat each length as to if I had a new haircut and was learning to restyle it. But I love it this short for many practical reasons like it's easy maintenance and I feel ...
