Sa aking
pagtulog na labis ang himbing
Ang bantay
ko'y tala
Ang tanod
ko'y bituin
Sa piling ni
Nanay
Langit ang
buhay
Puso kong
may dusa
Sabik sa
ugoy ng duyan mo Inay
Sana narito
ka Inay
“Sa Ugoy ng
Duyan” - Lyrics by Levi Celerio, Music by Lucio San Pedro,
When I was
just a little girl
I asked my
mother,
What would I
be?
“Que Sera,
Sera”- Lyrics by Jay Livingston, Music by Ray Evans
Once upon a
time a little girl was born with a birth defect so severe, no less than four
major operations were necessary for her to have a chance to grow normally.
After those four operations, she was to undergo another three, after four
years. The birth defect is known as VACTERL association, which is a group of
birth defects that appear together in children of diabetic mothers or children
born with chromosomal defects. She had the latter.
