Thirty four years ago at 6:00 p.m. on January 27, 1975 Raffy and I exchanged marriage vows at the Our Lady of Assumption Parish in Malate. (At dawn of the same date was Nora Aunor and Cristopher de Leon's beach wedding in Pangasinan.)

I feel proud to show my children and relatives that even during this trial in our lives, we are still together. For us, it is not the material things that is important in a married life -- but the respect, trust, understanding and love for each other.

Since coming home from the hospital last December 30, Raffy has been sleeping in the living room where a small bed was assembled so that friends and relatives who would come to visit him will not go to our bedroom. Last night, however, Toto and Lucky exerted extra efforts to bring their dad to our bedroom where we slept together. It was a great relief to see him moving his body through his right hand and leg. It was his way of greeting me a happy 34th anniversary.
