My Daughter's Surgery

I was not online for a long time because my daughter had recurrent UTI due to her ureteral reflux and we finally decided to have her ureters surgically corrected at Davao Doctor's Hospital. My apologies to my online friends and readers.

To have one's ten-month old daughter undergo a major surgical operation is not easy. It was really an ordeal for me. Aside from the fact the it involves a huge amount of money, it was also physically exhausting because I had few hours of sleep at night. But anyways, thanks to the team of doctors who made my daughter's ureteral surgery a sucess.

A big THANK YOU to the following doctors:

Dr. Santiago Aquino - My daughter's pediatric surgeon
