Day 3 Chemo 2. Sat. 08/12/2017 4:00PM
“Thank you God I am a bit better today.” Appetite had come back, getting me through breakfast, lunch and snack time. Gastritis had lessened down inflicting pain on my tummy. Energy had picked up a bit, although occasional dizziness still ensued. Compared to Day 3 after Chemotherapy 1, this day 3 is really an improvement because on the previous Day 3 I was really feeling weak and tired with persistent gastritis and lots of waking up in the middle of the night. Tranquil day.
When the positive energies all lined up together it creates a peaceful aura of the day. And that was, what happened with us. With the help of the new technology we were able to gather together in communication. My mom and my sister Rabbi in PSH (Perpetual Succour Hospital) Cebu, my sister Jona in Colorado and Ate Sinead and myself at home in Labangon, Cebu were able to do a teleconference. All three sisters (Jona, Rabbi and including myself ) had agreed to work out something that would alleviate the condition of our mom and we concurred that by gathering together around our mom and asking sorry for whatever shortcomings we had, we could probably let her feel how important she is to us. And so with no hesitation I said sorry right away to my mom rallying Sinead to do the same to her grandma. Guilt or whatever it may be, I presupposed that it was myself and Sinead who may have triggered the “cardiovascular accident attack” on her when we argued with her 4 days ago about her unwise decision of letting the tenants continue to occupy the rental properties despite breaking the agreements. We may have said it quite differently towards the old folk that made her despondent. So following up my sorry I told mommy: “I LOVE YOU.” These words alone were enough to change everything. Mommy answered back without any reluctance: “I love you too mga anak.” (I love you too my dear daughters.) What a relief to all of us. Thanks to new technology. Thank you Lord. We were all teary-eyed as we encouraged our mom to fight, fight, fight. We did not of course let her stay that long in our teleconference as she needed to recuperate and gain more energy just liked me. But after it was all said and done, we scampered around knowing that we made an impact on her.
