No More Pain, Madam Pachuchay 💔

2 days ago when I stumbled upon sis @bmjc98 's noise post about the passing of madam @Pachuchay . I was so in disbelief when I read it. Like, how did it happen? We were just exchanging comments here days ago and this is just too sudden.

I had no idea what happened to her these past few days. I wanna know how but I think it's not necessary for now. I should respect the entire family's privacy and space to grieve. I knew she has a lifetime serious illness and I have witnessed how madam battled with that. It is such a heartbreaking fact to lose her but at least, madam is no longer in pain.

To make sure that what I read was true, I came across her sister's post and there, I saw madam covered in white linen 💔 I felt weak, my body felt weak. To my disbelief, I stared at the ceiling for a moment. I couldn't believe it. I mean, make it make sense? Then things start to sink in slowly. My heart feels so heavy.

This is personal to me because I have witnessed how madam started her journey here on read.cash. From there, we became really good friends even though we've only met virtually. I even had a plan of meeting her back when we were launching my band's music hoping for a success but it's not gonna happen anymore.

Here are some of the conversations we had before:

Wow, this conversation was 2 years ago. Almost 3 actually. Madam used to have this name @damelindz before but her account was marked as spam that's she created a new one and named herself Pachuchay.

Meeting madam was such a delight. Her personality is so lovely. You would never feel awkward approaching her. She's nice and easy to talk with, she can carry good conversations along the way, she's smart, and is very loving to her husband and only daughter.

It took me hours of reading back her articles and short posts. I felt the need to, and as I was reading back all her articles, I realized how tough the journey was for madam. She definitely put up a good fight. We all witnessed the struggles and pain she went through because of her illness.

This was when she took the courage to have herself checked because what she felt was already bothering her. That's when she found out she had Myasthenia gravis. I think that was around October 2021. Refer here to read the full context.

I was so saddened and worried about her condition at that time but I was really optimistic that she'll get it through. We were in high hopes that everything's gonna be fine. The first doctor who diagnosed her seemed to be only concerned of the money he'll get from madam and was actually exploiting a lot from her. That was terrible.

Good thing she had her second opinion and she went through several tests and seek best medical attention for her condition. It was not easy for her. It was such a tough journey. A lot of challenges and struggles went on. I felt anxious of how she's doing everyday. I salute her husband for not giving up on her. He's always with her through ups and downs.

This article broke my heart. 🥺 Madam was looking forward to travel the world and to see her daughter graduate in college 💔

That was published December 18, 2021. The letter for herself was so full of hope and happiness to turn them all into a reality. However, life has its own way of demonstrating mystery and uncertainty.

We have lost a friend, a family member that we have all cherished. We're all gonna miss you, madam. We would love to read more of your articles but we need to let you go. No more suffering madam. You put up a great fight. You are definitely a warrior.

Rest in peace. 🙏

Thanks for reading.

Keep safe everyone!
