Recoup


I'm just beginning to get back on my feet. Losing 5 lbs. in 3 days was a wake-up call. It may not seem like much but on an already petite frame, believe me, that's excessive.

I'm through with denial and anguish. With prayers and a lot of support, I think I've managed to accept things as they are now. Of course, my boys have always been such an inspiration....... While I'm at it, I may as well thank all those, who have in more ways than one, helped us.

To Joel's high school buddies - Gerry, Allan, Paolo, Ricky, Lindley, Jing, Ducon, Pasky, Hector, Auwie, Malou, Anna, Shirley, Rowelyn, Myra, Aileen - for planning and executing the perfect surprise 'Bon Voyage' party for J, thank you. We appreciate the superb gesture, and how very thoughtful of you all to have given it........

To dear blogger friends - JD, Iron Pugilist, Liudmila, Frogster, Florence, Ate Beng - for the wonderful messages and the well wishes. And to Annita - bless you for your sweet e-card and for your affecting messages. I can sense the warmth and genuineness of your poignant words.......

To Ate Leni, Kuya Sam, Tim, Mommy Nita, Ate Baby, Ate Mel, Joseph R, Celina R, & Mike C - for helping us as we ease through this transition, thank you. No words can express our gratitude for all you've done. Namaste.......

J
I miss you greatly.

I can't wait for that day when I can steal that few moments with you again so we can escape to our own private world - where nothing exists but the two of us.

I love you overly much, you know very well how much I do.
I

Hi Ivy,cheer my up dear. I know how you feel. Talagang malungkot but then isipin mo na lang ang araw nang kanyang pagbalik. Be strong para sa iyong mga anak at para kay J mo.

I will be in your position next month dahil maiiwan muna ang asawa ko dito. By October pa kaming magpamilya magkakasama ulit. Hindi pa nga ako nakaalis mabigat na ang damdamin ko. And I lose weight too dahil halos gabi-gabi akong hindi nakakatulog ngayon sa kakaisip.

Take care of yoursel and I look forward to seeing you soon.

sis, I don't know what happened, but I feel your anguish...oh joel is not there with you?

we're on the same boat :(

I'm going home sa december...my daughter needs a mom, hindi pangmatagalan pero siguro a month na magkasama kami will tell her that na lagi ako sa tabi nya.

hirap ng feeling no?
