Get Well Maxine!


(Photo courtesy of itsosuruh's Flick'r site.)

This is Maxine a year ago at her 19th birthday.

She does not know me, but I know her namesake: Dad and Bro Max Bravo. Father to our DeMolay brother and father of Maxine, Dave Allan (DAZB)

She's twenty now and is suffering from seizures brought about by a viral infection.

The doctors are doing their job to cure her and we can only pray for her and her family for strength and guidance. Pray that she will recover from this illness, that her family and friends be blessed for keeping her in their prayers. Most of all, for their support to keep Maxine well.

We know prayers work:

My grandson, Jaylen, who suffered from leukemia two years ago and is well now.

Another friend of ours, Eric, suffered from aneurism, been comatose, put under induced coma and now can walk and talk a bit. He is still in the hospital, but this is a great improvement from coma and aneurism. We just visited him the other night and he can even recognised us and communicate by hand signals.

We hope and pray that God give His grace and blessings to Maxine as well.

Happy Birthday Nanay: 3 June



Today is also my Nanay's birthday, her 89th birthday. Jaylen shares her birthday, June 3.

May and June are busy months for us, in terms of birthdays.

Starting with my sister Olay on May 5, my late father-in-law on May 20, my elder sister, Ate Mae on May 21, May 27 for my brother-in-law, Jun, then Aiyee on the 30th of May.

June 2 is my brother-in-law's birthday, Kuya Chito and June 3 is my mother and Jaylen's birthdays. June 4 is Ate Zeny, my other sister-in-law and June 5, my sister's Wiws birthday.

So these two months are quite busy, lots of parties to go to.



Come next year would be a big birthday party for my Nanay Olive, she will turn 90 years old.

I am just wondering what I can give as a present to a 90 year old mother?

I have another year to think...
