Our beloved mother, wife, and friend, Florida "Aida," was recently diagnosed with cancer. At 69 years old, she has always been a source of strength and light to everyone around her.

Florida is the proud mother of four children and a devoted wife. Since 1995, she and our dad, Pol, have been active members of the Couples for Christ (CFC) community in the Philippines, and when they moved to the United States, they continued serving faithfully together. She has always given more than she could, offering her time, talent, and treasures generously—not only in the U.S. but also to those in the Philippines. She does this with full trust in God’s providence and with so much joy, continually inspiring others with her faith and service.

Now, our Mom Aida faces one of the hardest battles of her life. Her doctors have recommended surgery and ongoing chemotherapy treatments. Her surgery and chemotherapy session are scheduled for Friday, September 12, and she is expected to remain in the hospital for about a week. Because she will also need extended time to recover, she will be unable to work, further adding to the financial strain. The medical costs, combined with recovery expenses, have placed a heavy burden on her and our family.

Despite the pain and uncertainty, our Mom continues to inspire us with her courage and unwavering trust in God. But she cannot fight this alone.

We are reaching out to friends, family, and the extended community for support. Your donations will go directly toward her surgery, chemotherapy, hospital bills, and recovery care. No amount is too small—every contribution is a step closer to her healing.

If you’re unable to contribute financially, we humbly ask for your prayers, words of encouragement, and support for our Mom and our family during this difficult time.

Together, we can lift her up in love and help her continue being the blessing she has always been to others.

May God bless you!

With gratitude,

Jason, Jennifer, Jerome, and Joseph— her loving children
