Mom Violy, Tita Edna and Carmina have never been to Iloilo . Tita Edna suggested using her Philippine Airlines mileage to deduct 9,000 miles for a round trip to Iloilo and pay taxes of about 3,000 pesos ($50.85). Mom Violy and Carmina decided to do the same. Two weeks later, we learned Bacolod was recently hit by a typhoon, leaving fewer places to visit, so we changed our plans to stay in Iloilo, paying an additional 2,057 pesos ($34.86) for January 6–9, with Tita Edna leaving one day earlier on January 8, 2026.  Tita Edna told us that she has a friend Beth who can pick us up from the airport. Uniparentally plans had changed since her friend Beth and son could no longer tour us around, we decided to find ways to get around hire someone else. Jerson had picked us from One Madison Place where we had stayed during our vacation with the hours Mom Violy had requested.

Saying Good Bye


Have you've ever had a moment you cannot sleep and you're wide awake?

I started watching my Korean television series online the title of the show is More Than Friends. I was on an episode occurred the character's mom was in the hospital saying their goodbye to her children due to an illness she had.

I couldn't stop crying and I began thinking what happen to me how I will be able to cope in that situation.

I was watching the next episode at the viewing of the funeral to say your last good bye having close friends gathered around you supporting you during your toughest moment made me realize if I had those kinds of friends.

In case one day it comes into that situation who will be there to guide and support me you really don't have friends who like talking about death.

I have friends who are against that topic. 

One day it will happen to us.

I woke up looking at my social media and saw my mom's best friend had passed away. Just occurred to me if any of this was related why I couldn't sleep last night you never know what people do when the spirit of someone close to us is giving us a hint.

There are some people who don't believe in superstitious to me I sometimes believe it comes for a reason and to let us wake up and see what is really in front of us.

Two weeks ago my mom had a dream of her best friend with her husband who had recently passed away a few months ago.

Her best friend was also sick with medical condition in my mom's dream the person was having a get together along with her and her husband.

The person in her dream was the two couples I had mentioned and next you know she had followed her spouse to heaven.

Do you believe if one spouse has passed away the other person can guide that person to heaven?

It has happened to a lot of my mom's close friends in the past just the thought if you had missed each other and you also have medical condition one day you can also leave your family behind when that time comes in a period of our life.
