Email 2 & 3

I love writing entries to my blogs because I know someone, a new person, a new pozzie will somehow find it and read what I wrote, about my struggles and my researches. I know somehow, my entries can clear up a confused mind and calm down an anxious heart. So even though I am quite busy with my job lately, I know I have a responsibility to myself and to others. I know that my mission is forever and helping other people with their struggles is comforting.

This February, I was able to help another pozzie with the financial burden of his illness. I am still on it and still keeping the promise to myself. Ate Ellen from ARG was careful with her referrals though because she doesn’t people to abuse my generosity. But really, I don’t care. As long as it is needed, I would be willing to help. I told Tag about that and he gave me a go signal. We know it is hard to have this illness, with all the cost of the lab exams. We know, there will be a financial struggle too so it is better to reach out to people who need our help. I can offer only a little but what is important is that I can still help.

I’ve been receiving heartwarming emails from new pozzies, telling me about my entries in the blog. They said that through my blog, I somehow have helped them out in some ways in their new “journey” (I used your term, sir). I am always happy to help, even with my busy schedule now. I corresponded with the new pozzies and try to answer all their queries. It makes me alive and fulfilled.. it still gives me a sense of purpose in life. Also, it makes me be aware that even though I am back to my normal life, I still have the virus living within me.

One message that I got came from another brother of a pozzie. I had experience before, corresponding with a brother of a pozzie who was so supportive. I also referred him to my doctor and now and then we text each other and I am happy that his condition somehow stabilized over time. With this new pozzie that I am communicating now, he is still weak and I am encouraging him to be strong physically and emotionally. I am teaching him my techniques on how to fight back the illness that come with virus. I knew his struggles and I encouraged him that by holding on and having a positive attitude, everything will be ok. I believe that just being there for someone is a big thing. It helps relieve some of the pain and stress that come with the virus. Directly it helps me too because I feel that life is an everyday battle and it would be hard to fight a battle with nobody to fight with. 

I told this new pozzie to eat more to regain his strength back. It was hard for him, I know but I just encouraged him to keep on trying because his body needs nutrients to fight back.  I told him to change his attitude and his focus should be directly solely on getting strong again. The mind is stronger than the body so use that strength to stand up again. 

Another message that I got was from a new pozzie who is now facing his new “journey”. I am glad that I am there with him. We still communicate and I still answer his questions. He told me that he is glad that even though we just text, he feels that he is with somebody with his struggle. I am still encouraging him to fight. I am motivating him to stay positive. Sometimes, I would ask Angel, a fellow pozzie for questions about his hub just to answer this new pozzie’s questions and I am grateful that I still have a group of pozzies that I can ask if I am not sure about certain things. A pool of information is all around, a pool of local experience is better that what we just read online.

But really thank you to all my readers. Thank you to those who have been emailing me. Indirectly you are helping me too.
