Well my mom Zosima Rodriguez Bayoy, born on December 26, 1928 in San Fernando Cebu. Passed away last October 05, 2008 at 12:30pm. In Patag, Sarangani Province. At her bedside was her 6 children and grandkids and son-in-laws. One of her son(youngest son) was in Manila, just arrived from Singapore to visit her. He was just starts working to this new company. Luckily they allowed him one week off to visit mama. It was really hard watching Mama suffer. I think at the end it was really a relief for us seeing her rested already. She's already been suffering from the stroke a few years now. I think just 2-3 years after I get back from the States … [Read more...]
To My Beloved Mom!
September 26, 2008 By 1 Comment
My mom is turning 80 years old this coming December. Right now she's really sick. Honestly she could go anytime now. Just 3 years after coming back here to lived for good my mom had stroke. She did recover after that, but she didn't really take care of herself that much that she got ill again. She didn't get better after another stroke. She didn't really listen to the advice of the doctor. Bob and I even hire a physical therapist to come to our house everyday to work on her. My goodness just after a month she fired the therapist. I was wondering why the therapist didn't come that day for her session, so I called her up and told her why she's … [Read more...]
Our Sarangani Farm!
September 20, 2008 By Leave a Comment
During summer breaks of my kids this year, we went to my parents farm in Patag, Malapatan, Sarangani Province. Just less than 30 minutes drive from General Santos City. Its a place where I was born. Patag is a small barrio. I don't even know the population there. This is the first time that my 3 kids went there. They really had fun going swimming with their cousins(Leo, Glenrose, Cyril, Emmanuel, Joshua, David, Nichole, and Sahara. They probably would have stayed on that river for a long time if not that its getting dark. They really like to jump from that coconut tree thats just floating in the middle of the river. As you can see on the picture … [Read more...]
Sad news!

Well, from my previous post I wrote about my niece's daughter who got very sick. Sad to tell you that she did passed away a few days being in the hospital. It's been hard to my niece, but I think it's better for her daughter to rest than really suffer. At least she's with God now. I think it also taught some lesson to my niece and her husband especially to be responsible parent. I hope that they really would take care the remaining three kids they have right now. For those people that pray for her thank you very much. So long Gwen! … [Read more...]

I found out from my family in General Santos that one of my niece's daughter got ill since yesterday. They told me that the baby has meningitis. I didn't really know what it was until last week when I went to a hospital here and heard somebody screaming inside the emergency room. I asked the doctor what was wrong with the lady. He told me that the lady has meningitis. Gosh, just remembering the pain on that lady and here we are we have a baby that has it. My sister said that the baby might not make it. It's hard for me to think the pain the baby is going through. Just typing this blog is hard for me thinking that my niece are in pain right now. … [Read more...]
