So, I've been wondering why some of my friends' Facebook status have been so glum and later on I found out why...
1. Cory Aquino died on Aug 1
2. Jet Concepcion (my officemate) died on Aug 5
3. Trixie Diyco's (another former officemate) father passed away Aug 4
I had just heard about Jet's being in the hospital last Friday due to a blood clot in his brain. I felt both shocked & sad when I read the email that he had been declared brain dead... I wasn't super close to him but he was always nice to me. Very funny. Very talented percussionist.
Trixie's dad... I knew that he had undergone surgery sometime ago but that's all I heard. Nanette Diyco (Trixie's mom) was my teacher in Ateneo and I got to work with Trixie on several projects back in BBDO. My heart goes out to them.
Cory Aquino, well... what is there to say? I feel like the country's lost its moral compass-- or an important part of it anyway.
Keep them in your prayers please.
