PRAYERS TO CANCER-STRICKEN SOULS

Our prayers and energies to cancer-stricken friends:

     1. Our prayers and energies to Jackie Diego Ignacio who has cancer of the bone in Toronto, Canada. Since being diagnosed for the disease, group prayers have been offered for her in the Philippines and in Canada. May the spirit of the Lord Almighty be with her always. Jackie is the sister of the blogger's daughter-in-law, Maria Concepcion of San Mateo, Isabela.

    2. Our prayers and energies to former colleague, Mariel Rilloraza, who has stage 2 breast cancer. She has been living with her daughter Audrey and two grandchildren in Pomona CA since 2005, and undergone the first of eight chemotherapy procedures that, she said, has weakened her immune system and caused all her hair to fall off. Her voice was weak and the blogger could not recognize it when she called her after more than a decade. Eventually, the voice became stronger and more alive as in former times and we laughed multiple times as we recalled past events in the regional office of the Philippine Information Agency in San Fernando City. May the spirit of the Lord Almighty be upon her always.energies

    3. Our prayers and energies to Ramon Dacawi of Baguio. The smiling journalist--that's how the blogger remembers him--is undergoing dialysis at a hospital in the city of pines.
