Good morning to all, maybe most of you been wondering why most of the articles i've been writing here's about diseases, well it's 'coz most of the people i knew here personally had that kind of disease, especially My KJF, so that's the main reason of it, lol, wanted most of you here to be aware of it and hope somehow it had helped, now, going to write 'bout another type of disease and like my article's title here today, wondering where she get this kind of disease.

That photo was taken 3 days ago or last friday, 19/3/2021. She's my cousin, Alliah Marie Asuncion Antonio, 20 years of age, she's on East Avenue Hospital 'til now, wrote this 'coz i want all of you to be aware of the disease my cousin have right now and to also helped her and my aunt in the expenses they are facing right now, it's not a simple kind of disease as it's not curable, the doctor or the medicine or the treatment can only help control its symptoms. Naaawa ako sa kanya, she maybe be a little pasaway but she's my cousin, not by blood though as my aunt just adopted her but still, she has my aunt's name so that makes us family, right, lol.

She's also my cousin, she just used that kind of profile pic as her aunt's husband had just died, she and Alliah's first cousins, you can try to send her a message if you are in doubt or wanted to make sure 'bout everything i said here or if you want to help us somehow, she's just a message away, just told her that you learned 'bout Alliah's condition/situation 'coz of me, lol. She's the one who's donating her blood for our cousin Alliah there, so now, going to tell what kind of disease Alliah has and how hard or it's not easy to have that kind disease especially now that we all are facing this Pandemic, good thing, East Avenue Hospital accepted her, grateful for that though still worrying 'bout her.

The disease she have right now's called Lupus.

Now, according to My Mother, My Cousin who's her sibling, told her na namamaga daw ang lapay niya at may lumabas daw na dugo sa ilong niya. Sad for her, bukas, sasalinan siya ulit ng dugo na i guess was donated or Ate Kambal's blood 'coz she's going to the Hospital to donate her blood. Just praying that she gets well soon and hoping that some help might be given for her, can't help but wonder now, halos sabay-sabay ang nangyayari dito sa amin, last year or last December, my cousin had been killed, then this February, My Other Halfsister died of a heart attack according to her Husband, since it's Pandemic, he decided to have her cremated, now, wala na kaming balita sa Bayaw ko kaya hindi namin alam kung ano na nangyari, baka iuwi yung Urn niya sa La Union tulad ng sinabi niya sa Nanay ko dati, still sad 'coz i wasn't able to see her for the last time then she was cremated, My Mother told him na kung puwede dun siya ilibing o ilagay yung Urn niya sa Cavite kung saan nakalibing ang Tatay namin pero sabi pag-iisipan niya daw, ngayon, hindi na siya mahagilap, lol. Good morning to all once again, hope you find this article of mine here again an informative one and would really appreciate any amount as it will be a big help to My Cousin, thank you and God bless to all, have a good day :)

P.S. just learned that Alliah's already dead, she died 2 hours ago
