Last year, my tito was diagnosed with lung cancer.

LUNG CANCER?
Automatic papasok sa utak natin....
Smoker? NOPE.
The family has no background with Cancer.
I think he's the healthiest in the family.
PMA-er. Coast guard.

He was here in Manila when he got diagnosed with Cancer.
He was assigned in Mandaluyong Coast guard.
Malilipat na sana siya sa Bacolod, which is where his family lives
kaso THIS happened.

He got chemotherapy.
the therapy was done last January.
I saw him last December. He was doing fine. Medyo payat
but he can drive. Long distance pa.

This April we saw him again.
He was extremely thin. He can't eat or sleep.
They admitted him to the hospital again.
CT Scan - kumalat na sa right side ng ribs niya... yeah, fuck no?

My relatives in the province went to a "Manggagamot". parang ganon.
Wala namang mangyayari kung i-ttry.
May "thing" daw. Dinala yung tito ko.
Ayun.

Kanina, na-receive ng mom ko yung message ng tita ko
na sabi na about to give up na daw yung doctor.
My reaction.. "bakit?"

Saw my mom cried. FCUK. Hug her.

****

UNFAIR. UNFAIR. NO.
GIVE UP? NO. NO.
The guy has a FAMILY. two KIDS. KIDS. a WIFE. BROTHER and SISTERS. a MOTHER.

Alam ko nahihirapan na pero pano na sila?.
It's NOT FAIR.


PLEASE LORD. :(
