2nd Time...

I know Life is not perfect. But I know He will not give me trials that I can't handle. I know this is happening because God wants me to be more strong person. And I wanna thank God for giving me wonderful Family, My hunny, friends and relatives for always being there when i needed help and always there to support me through Good times and and most especially Bad times. Salamat pinapatatag nyo ang loob ko sa mga panahon na ito.. I Love You All.

9th Day

Last sat was my Tito's 9th Day. Ang bilis ng pangyayari. Up to now, we still can't believe he's not with us anymore, that we can't talk to him, be with him in every occasion. Memories nlng tlga.. :( My cousin is always texting me whenever she feels sad and sharing kwentos about her dad. I remember the night nung libing ng tito ko she texted me " wla na yung superman ng buhay ko ." Super sad pag naiicp namin lahat ang nangyri.

Btw, i was surprised when i saw this note on our pc and made me cry once again...

" It is hard to accept and painful among family members the dying moment of my brother, but we have to. My brother, Fernando "Nando" for short serves our Dear Lord unconditionally while he is still alive and Infact, he is the one who established our catholic community "Lord of Pardon" here in Del Pilar St., Sn Andres Bukid, Manila. He is also an active member of various religious group such as "Couples for Christ", "Oasis of Love", "The Lord's Flock", and many others. He is now besides with our Dear Lord. "

This note is from my papa. I know and can feel how much he misses his brother. But I know, and I'm sure he is in Heaven right now with God. I'm sure he's also watching us and guiding us.
We miss you so much tito Nando... We love you sooo much :'(

COME WITH ME

The Lord saw you getting tired
And a cure was not to be,
So He put his arms aroud you
And whispered, "Come with me."

With tearful eyes, we watched you suffer
And saw you fade away,
Although we loved you dearly,
We could not make you stay.

A golden heart stopped beating,
A beautiful smile at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove
He only takes the best.

It's lonesome here without you
We miss you so each day,
Our lives aren't the same
Since you went away.

When days are sad and lonely,
And everything goes wrong,
We seem to hear you whisper,
"Cheer up and carry on."

Each time we see your picture,
You seem to smile and say,
"Don't cry, I'm in God's keeping,
We'll meet again someday."

He's free....

A really nice poem from the mass card that we got during my tito's wake.

Don't grieve for me, for now I'm free
I'm following the path God has chosen for me.
I took His hand when I heard him call;
I turned my back and left it all.

I could not stay another day,
To laugh, to love, to work or play.
Tasks left undone must stay that way;
I've now found peace at the end of day.

If my parting has left a void,
Then fill it with remembered joys.
A friendship shared, a laugh, a kiss;
Oh yes, these things, I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
Look for the sunshine of tomorrow.

My life's been full, I savored much;
Good friends, good times, a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seems all to brief;
Don't lengthen your pain with undue grief.
Lift up your heart and peace to thee,
God wanted me now-He set me free

After 6mos of battle from cancer, my tito is now with our Creator. My Tito Nando passed away last Jun 28,2008 exactly 4:20 am.He's only 55 yrs old. We were there watching him up to his last breath. ang hirap sobra....Good thing nakkuha kme ng last flight ng thurs,wait listed kme nun.It's so hard na mkta cya na ngssuffer ng ganun, na naghihingalo. Actually after making the final decision, the doctor only gave him max of 6-8 hrs to live,but my tito really wanted to fight, umabot cya ng 12hrs.He's really a fighter.We still kissed him kht wla na cya. Hayyyyyyyy............

Up to now we can't still believe that we will not see him anymore. Just yesterday Jul 02 2008, hinatid na namin cya sa huling beses, it's really hard to see the person na ndi mo na mkkta habang buhay. Hayy.. ang bilis ng buhay, dun mo malalaman yung worth ng minutes.

We will surely miss you Tito Nando. We love you so much. I know ure happy in heaven with God and watching us. We miss you a lot :( we love u soooooo much tito.
