We’re Back Home From Vacation

Its been  a month since my last post, finally we are back last Saturday from a long vacation from the Philippines. It was hard for me to leave my father in his situation who has a Prostate cancer (and not a mild stroke as first predicted). He  cannot walk, he cannot move his body from his waist down to his feet and if he wants to go somewhere two men should carry him to the wheelchair. I brought him from the province to Manila with my two brothers to have his medication in the National Kidney Technology Institute and I leave them with hope and pray that he regains his strength and can walk again soon.

On the other hand, during our stay there,  Erika had a Diarrhea so the plan of weaning her in my province  has been dismissed. She lost weight. Meanwhile she was also baptized there last April 28. She can now talk with “i” sounds in the end and can sing without words that last for about a minute …  just imagine her song is like a baby talk with a melody. Well I hope I can record her voice singing one of these days.
