Josie’s daughter in law, Emy, was diagnosed with Stage 1 Breast Cancer last year.
Emy discovered it herself during a self-examination. After a few months, her doctor at the Asian Medical Center in Alabang informed her that they couldn’t find the cancer anymore.
This year, she’s been told that the cancer is back, and it’s now Stage 2.
Emy is a college professor in one of the leading universities in Manila. She’s 39 and childless.
She used to be chubby but now her weight had dropped by at least 15 pounds. Hindi daw kasi kumakain. Eh sino naman daw ang gaganahan kumain kung may sakit.
Her kasambaho, relatives, family and friends keep sending her guyabano fruit. Kasi anti-cancer daw. When Josie visited their condo, she found a ref-full of guyabano.
Before going home that night, naalala ko si Josie, napabili pati ako ng guyabano.
