More Updates on Ate Conching

Ate Conching is currently at the Philippine General Hospital (PGH), ward 2, bed 30. 

If you don't know where PGH is, you can use Google Maps (Click to get linked), search for "Philippine General Hospital, Padre Faura, Manila, Metro Manila, Philippines" and you'll be given the exact location. 

It would be appreciated if you could drop by to give her some company and/or bring/send her some food and drinks. :)

If you opt to help financially, her bank account details can be found on the wall of the Ate Conching Beats Breast Cancer Facebook Page.

Moreover, her mastectomy didn't push through last Thursday. Hopes are for it to be on Wednesday. 
The sooner, the better!

Let's continue praying!

Thank you!


We wouldn't have all these information without Mrs. Sator, my high school mentor, who has been constantly updating my friends and I about Ate Conching and Mrs. Escasa, my high school Composition teacher, who was the one who talked to Ate Conching (and Ina Villegas who informed me about the latter). Thank you!

Updates on Ate Conching

Good evening!

Based on how the views for my Ate Conching post shot up within the first 24 hours since it was posted, I really feel the love we have for her. It's really amazing how the Woodrose community came together for her. Thank you also to those who aren't part of the Woodrose community but also expressed their concern and desire to help and pray for her.

Below is the link to the Facebook page where updates will be posted regarding Ate Conching. We figured it'd be the best avenue especially since a lot of people are already on Facebook. However, I'll update you all here every now and then.

Let's help and let's continue praying!
Remember to pray to St. Josemaria Escriva!

Thank you everyone. Ate Conching is really grateful! :)

Ate Conching

Thoughtful, sweet, hardworking, lively - these were the first four words that entered into my mind when I think about Ate Conching. She was a humble member of the auxiliary back in my alma matter, PAREF Woodrose.

Ate Conching with my batchmate, Anna

When my batch and I entered Woodrose in 2000, she was already working as the person in charge of the Physical Education facilities. Normally every PE class when we have sports, she was the person from whom we got the volleyballs, badminton rackets, and what not from. We were always greeted with her warm smile and lively personality.

We grew up with her in our lives. She was assigned to different tasks which she did with love throughout the years. Moreover, when we reached high school, she was assigned to our building.

In the high school building, the auxiliary had their nook near the girls washroom. And being normal Woodrose girls, we took our time in the bathroom chit-chatting and just chilling there. But the point is that, a lot of the times I'd enter the washroom, she'd be like "Hi Queen!" which she pronounced as "Kwen". One of us would start making conversation and a lot of the times we'd talk about our families and our lives. Those were good moments.
