๐ "When I Became My Own Client" ๐
"My Breast Cancer Story"
In June 2021, I joined Pru Life UK as a Financial Advisor.
Never in my life did I imagine that a few years later, I would become my own client โ filing an insurance claim not for someone else, but for myself.
In January 2025, I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer Stage 1A HER2 Positive โ an aggressive type of cancer.
โ
No smoking
โ
No alcohol
โ
No family history
โ
Healthy eating
But stillโฆ it happened.
Good thing I had prepared early. I had two life insurance policies with Pru Life UK โ PAA+ and Elite 15 โ and they became my shield during the toughest battle of my life. Because of these, I didnโt have to touch my savings or borrow money. I was able to focus on one thing: healing.
๐ก ๐๐ฒ ๐๐จ๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐:
๐ PAA+ (Critical Illness) โ โฑ800,000
๐ Elite 15 (Critical Illness) โ โฑ2,000,000
๐ SSS (Sickness) โ โฑ24,300
๐ PhilHealth Z Benefits โ โฑ1.4M (covered my 6 cycles of chemo + 18 targeted therapy)
๐ ๐๐ซ๐๐๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐จ๐ฌ๐ญ๐ฌ & ๐๐๐๐ข๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง๐ฌ:
โข Biopsy โ โฑ15,000 (the test that confirmed my diagnosis)
โข Mastectomy with Breast Reconstruction โ โฑ300,000 (removal of one breast to stop the cancer from spreading)
โข Chemotherapy (6 cycles) โ โฑ31,000/session (destroys cancer cells to prevent them from multiplying)
โข Doctorโs PF โ โฑ10kโโฑ15k per cycle
โข Trastuzumab (18 sessions) โ โฑ56,000/session (a targeted therapy for HER2-positive cancer to stop the growth of cancer cells)
โข Tamoxifen โ โฑ800 per box (hormone therapy that lowers the chance of recurrence for the next 10 years)
โข Filgrastim โ โฑ2,000 each ร 4 pcs per cycle ร 6 months (boosts white blood cells after chemo)
On top of this are weekly blood tests, 2D echo, scans, and other maintenance medicines.
๐ And until now, my targeted therapy sessions are still ongoing.

The process was surprisingly fast. After I submitted my documents, the benefit was credited to my account in no time.
Special thanks to my Branch Manager, Jhovy Tungcul-Torres, who personally helped me follow up with Pru Life UKโs Claims Department.
Because of this support:
โ
I was able to pay my hospital bills right away during my mastectomy
โ
I avoided debt and financial stress
โ
I could focus fully on my recovery
Until today, my claims benefit continues to sustain me โ for my healthy food, weekly blood tests, scans, and medicines I need for treatment.

๐๐ข๐ญ๐ก & ๐๐ซ๐๐ญ๐ข๐ญ๐ฎ๐๐:
This journey made me realize how good our God is. Not everyone undergoing chemo and cancer treatment has the same experience. Some suffer unbearable side effectsโฆ but me, by His grace, I didnโt experience all of those. And for that, I am deeply thankful.
I thank God for the strength He gives me every single day. I also thank my very supportive husband who has never left my side, caring for me, loving me, and walking with me in every step of this battle.
And to my family, thank you for the support, and to all my friends, churchmates, and loved ones who continuously pray for my healing, I feel your love and I carry your prayers with me every day. You are part of my strength and courage.
To my clients and future clients: thank you for trusting me with your policies. Your trust doesnโt just protect your families โ it also gave me the strength to keep going, dahil sa commissions, I was also able to sustain my treatments and continue this fight.

Illness comes uninvited. You canโt predict it, you canโt choose when it will strike. But you can prepare.
Life insurance is not just about money. Itโs about peace of mind, protection, and love for your family.
One day, your loved ones will thank you for the decision you made today.
๐ Donโt wait for a diagnosis before you act.
๐ Donโt wait for a hospital bill before you prepare.
๐ The best time to get protected is while you are healthy.

Your health is uncertain. Your bills are certain. But your protection โ thatโs your choice.
We do care. ๐
