I have been pondering for several days now on how I will be able to cope with my diagnosed condition. It is not deadly, yes, but it afflicts 10% of Filipinos and for this percentage of occurence, it is alarmingly high.
I will be launching this new website very soon for the following reasons:
1. To give information to those who may be experiencing the same hardships; and
2. To share and be a support system to those who need it
I have been working in some advocacies for a time now and I feel that this is my personal advocacy now. I have seen how many non-profit organizations strive to spread awareness on the different conditions like Down Syndrome (this month is National Down Syndrome Awareness Month by the way), autism, visual impairment and the like.
Awareness is key. A support system is vital.
I know that I am just one person to forward this cause. But I do not have big dreams for it. Just one simple yearning -- to be able to inform and share, in a prayerful hope that somewhere, someone can benefit from it.
Will keep you all posted.
