Happy Father here because of HER.
Seeing them malnourished and skinny, she feeds several stray cats around the subdivision, often using cat food reserved only for their in-house pets. The cats have no difficulty recognizing her voice when called; most of them have assigned names she coined, such as Liam, Maritess, and Cassandra. She also developed the habit of talking to them.
Inside the house, it’s exactly the same with our own pets. But aside from feeding and talking, she would also cuddle and sing to them. (Just like what mothers do to their babies.)
What about the plants in her garden? Well, they, too, are treated similarly, with Tender Loving Care.
That’s why the stray cats love to stay around, the pets growing healthy and secure, and the plants remain radiant and lovely.
Her upbringing and profession as a Pediatrician must have contributed so much to developing her character. I often heard her say, “My patients deserve to be healthy, loved, and cared for. Their future depends on how we look after them, and I am in the best position to help.” Her dedication, commitment, and sincerity are unequivocal. She treats all patients as her own children, doing everything possible to make them healthy and happy.
If she treats others like family, what more to her own kids? From the womb up to the present, she’s doing everything to ensure their well-being. Her hands-on nurturing brings out the best in our children, in spite of her excessively hectic work. They’ve grown up obedient, confident, smart, friendly, goal-oriented, kind, responsible, respectful, and Christ-centered. Just what every parent prayed for.
Thus, I’m a Happy Father 24/7.
All credit goes to my wife.

January 8, 2022. My family was having a great dinner as we welcome New Year. Suddenly, my wife excused herself to answer a call. When she returned, concern and apprehension were written all over her face. I knew it has something to do with her work as a doctor. Apparently, it bothered her so much because she hardly touched the food since then.
The other day, she recalled to me what happened that night; the patient saw her in the clinic.
It was the grandmother who called up last Dec 31. She was frantic because of her grandchild’s emergency. The 1-year old girl has repeated convulsions with a high fever. First, they rushed her to the nearest public hospital but were refused. It’s full capacity already. Then, they tried private hospitals. There’s a vacancy, but they need to put up a down payment first. The hospital was requiring P50,000. She said she nearly fainted hearing the amount (which they can’t afford).
That was the time, out of desperation, she called my wife.
Upon learning about their dire circumstances, Dra asked all the vital observations from the grandma and to take a video of the child. Thereafter, she advised her what to do.
And when they saw my wife the other day, the grandma was ecstatic in expressing her gratitude. The child wasn’t just relieved the same night, but they only spent less than P500 for the medicine.
We are all in the middle of a crisis due to pandemics. Healthcare is one of the most affected. Physicians are diminishing in numbers. This morning, one hospital reported that only 3 resident doctors are responsible for 100 patients. It is, therefore, crucial to take care of oneself and avoid getting sick. The government is doing its best, but we need to do our share.
Likewise, if you have immediate access to health professionals, be very thankful. You are one of the lucky few. Doctors are rare nowadays, especially those risking their own health to serve us. We owe them a big debt of gratitude for all the sacrifices and services they provide.
As for my wife, I will always be grateful and extremely proud of her. She’s not only a doctor to the family, but a wife, a mother, a homemaker, and a great friend to all.
