Birthday in Hospital

The day my mom went for her CTScan, she told she wanted to be with me on my birthday. Unfortunately, it was with her in hospital. The funny part was, I was born in the same hospital 28 years ago :D Mom wasn't too bad but you could tell she wasn't feeling comfortable.

Mom Readmitted and Told

As her condition grew worse, we took her back to UMMC with the reports and the doctors placed her under palliative care. Mom knew something was not right as usually, palliative is associated with "no hope for survival". That evening, my dad and aunt told her the news that her cancer had returned and spread to the lungs. Mom's response was, she already suspected...

Judgement Day

Mom finally went for her CTScan in Assunta Hospital. We finally knew what it was but never told her knowing it would break her heart. We just told her the envelope was sealed and it can only be read by UMMC. Both my dad and I prepared for the worst and planned should the unexpected happen.

Happy New Year!

Although mom's condition grew worse day by day, we tried to keep her in positive thoughts and not give up although my dad and I knew something was not right. New Year was at home and a quiet one
