Second Sinovac Dose

Yesterday, May 26, 2021, my husband and I got our second dose of Sinovac vaccine. This second time around I was not so anxious as compared to the first time, because I knew before hand the site where we were going to and also the time of my choice to get the jab. I was only apprehensive because the rollouts also included not only the second dose but also the first dose vaccers, hence there would be more people. 

Lucas and took our early lunch at 10AM and we were at the center at almost 11AM. There were few people going for vaccination at 11 o’clock. However as we arrived, we could clearly see that there were a number of people who were already vaccinated, seated, and waiting to be released. We saw Yubeng Chua, Ramon Cua, Desiree Chiong, Henry and Judith Uy etc, who were all ahead of us, seated waiting to be released. Lucas and I got through easily for our shots, but after the vaccination, I did not like to be seated in the waiting section; so I pulled two chairs separately and seated ourselves apart but nearby. Somehow the attendants sensing my apprehension, checked our blood pressure and oxygen earlier than usual. As we were monitored with normal bp and oxygen level, we were released sooner, even earlier than Yubeng and Henry and Judith Uy. After we were released, I verily thank God for giving us this opportunity to get our second dose of vaccine peacefully, and for keeping us safe in his love and safekeeping. Lord, keep us safe always.

And to add more people, Lucio and Conchita Tan, my sister-in-law Lechu and her husband Manuel, my neighbors Conchita, Sofia, Vicente Co and friends Siolan Yap, Norma Lim, Lolita Uy, etc, got their second dose of Sinovac too yesterday. I was most happy though that my sister, Jeannette Yu finally took her first dose too yesterday. I hope more people will get vaccinated, so that we can soon end the spread of the virus and the pandemic very very soon. 

O God, please help us. Thank you.

May 2021

The month of May is dedicated in honor of our Lady. Ever since long time ago, I have always been confident that Our Blessed Mother is with us during the month of May. May is always a beautiful and blessed month. When my children were young, I offered my children to her as my flowers offerings, my Flores de Mayo, that they may all grow up to be good Catholics and well protected by our most blessed Mother. Until now, I continue to be confident that she is with us. I pray for her intercessions during this difficult time. O Blessed Mother, intercede for us to your only son Jesus. He loves you and he listens and obeys his most loving mother. I pray for all members of my family’s safety and good health, wherever dispersed we may be in different places and at different homes. O Blessed Mother hear my prayers. May 13 is the feast day of your apparition in Fatima. Please, may your immaculate heart triumph during this dark and difficult time. Help us please. May God put an end to this pandemic very very soon. O Blessed Mother pray for us and the whole world.
