Just the other weekend, my daughter who was still 10 months old at the time went under surgery to correct her hernia. The operation was a success both physically and financially. Physically because her body responded very well and is now recuperating. Financially, because we were able to pay up her surgery from donations and fund raising activities online. Thanks to our blogger friends, friends and relatives who helped us.

Anyway, it would have been very easy financially, if we had health insurance that covers congenital defects. Unfortunately, my husband’s health insurance doesn’t cover this. But still I thank God because I was also given a lot of writing job on auto insurance claim and these job opportunities helped us with the financial needs we had to go through before and after operation.

So, I guess there is no problem with no solution if you just trust in God!

Rainy days are here and dengue is even more rampant to bring fright to everyone, especially to children. Many cases regarding these diseases are now reported and the count keeps on rising. Because of this, I am afraid more for my children, because they have low resistance yet as compared to adults, like me.

This is the reason why I always protect my children from these dreadful mosquitoes as I am afraid to visit the hospital again. You know, my children are afraid of large and scary-looking medical equipment like x-ray machines that they often withdraw from those examinations. I just wish that my children will always be safe.

I was checking out on ceiling fans when I saw these lovely Casablanca fans. They look so nice, stylish and elegant. It makes me want to buy one for our dining room but it’s just that our dining table doesn’t look good.

Anyway, I am actually planning to buy a ceiling fan. I needed one in our bedroom as an alternate to our air conditioning unit. I want to lower our electricity bills and save up for the rainy seasons. I love the Casablanca fans. I am not just sure if they fit up at our room ceiling.
