We Actually Shot Scenes For The TV Program

As I have stated recently, one program researcher of a TV show from Manila contacted us and informed us of their interest with our case. And they actually been here this weekend.

On Saturday, we have shot scenes while Zyruz is asleep, how we take care of him when apnea attacks, and a lot more. On Sunday, we shot scenes while he is at play, interviewed us and some scenes while we are supposedly leaving the house for Manila.

We were supposedly leaving today, as per conversation with the PR. But she said, there are some conflicts with the schedule of the doctors. But she assured, we will be going to Manila in September, for check-up and possible operation.

The PR also said, they will do all they can do to help us including the operation, they will try to convince the doctors.

By this time, we are not only excited to go to Manila for the check-up and possible operation but also excited to see our story on television.

Here's the trailer of the said television show.

Hopefully, This Is The Answer To Our Prayers.

I have a conversation today with a program researcher (PR) of a TV station based in Manila. She said, they are interested with the case of my son. I am not quite sure if they will be featuring our story, but as our conversation went on, we are probably be flying to Manila very very soon.

It is not still clear at this moment if their program will shoulder everything, every expenses when we are in Manila. But she told me that they will shoulder our fares and they already have communications with St. Luke's Hospital.

So, let's cross our fingers. Hopefully, this is the fruit of our labor, the answer to all our prayers.



Thank You All!

Excessive Daytime Sleepiness Can Be Fatal

One of the symptoms common to people with Sleep Apnea is the excessive daytime sleepiness (EDS). Common but something that should be given proper attention.

Narcolepsy, as Wikipedia describes, is a chronic sleep disorder. A person could experience extreme fatigue and possibly falls asleep at inappropriate time, such as while at work or at school.

Narcoleptics usually experience disturbed nocturnal sleep and an abnormal daytime sleep pattern, which is often confused with insomnia.

I have learned from one of my friends on myLot, that one person died just because she was a narcoleptic. She fell asleep at the wheel of her car.
