๐๐ข๐ญ๐ก ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐ฌ ๐๐ฒ ๐๐๐ง๐ข๐ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ was created last June 2019 to help raise funds for my cancer treatments. We launched two collections, Courage Series and Rooted & Pruned. I was still in Cagayan de Oro (CdeO) and was very involved when Courage Series first came out, but on July 2019, my cancer journey took a dramatic turn and I had to be airlifted to Manila. Since then, I have not come home. Still, we were able to produce Rooted & Pruned last September 2020. For making the second collection possible, I thank
โข Gen of ๐ฌ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฉ๐๐จ and Wedda of ๐ฌ๐๐๐๐จ๐๐ง๐ฉ for designing Rooted & Pruned;
โข MUGLR for printing our tags and stickers;
โข Gail of Hey, it's Gail for our catalogue shoot;
โข ๐ผ๐ฉ๐ ๐๐๐ง๐ก for our local delivery service;
โข Kagay-an Coffee Cartel and Cherrysh CGY for partnering with us;
โข My brother Nikko, Aunty Angelie, Uncle Raymond, and Uncle Vincent for helping me produce the mugs in CdeO; and
โข My sister Caroline for helping me with the rest.
I also thank all of you, especially my family and friends, who have bought these mugs and kept me in your prayers. I hope you continue to support me, other cancer warriors, and other local businesses. I plan to revamp and relaunch ๐

While we are on a break, please continue donating to the medical fundraisers of my friends at Faith Stories by Lenie Rose. Gwen, Ate Vanessa, Earl, Baby NZ, and Bea are all on active treatment, while Nanay Mila is due for a PET CT.
Finally, I thank and praise Christ Jesus, the C that is bigger and mightier than cancer and covid.
