By the way, my mother bears a striking resemblance to Tita Cory. She succumbed to cancer after a long and painful battle (fortunately or unfortunate, I don't look a bit like Kris). It's not really because of the similarity in circumtances or physique that made me link my own mom with Tita Cory. I just recall vividly how she and my dad encouraged us, their children, to join the throngs at EDSA in fighting for our democracy. While some would cower in fear and shield their kids from imminent danger, my parents were probably thinking if democracy would be restored, we would have to seize the moment right there and then for us and our future children and grandchildren and all of the future generation (The first grandchildren were not allowed to join us at EDSA, however. My nephew and niece were toddlers around that time.). After four days, democracy was won.... led by a woman in yellow.
We may feel that democracy may fall at times but let's give it to this wonderful woman who made possible the restoration of democratic and peaceful means after the dark years of the Marcos dictatorship. I believe that God knows what is best for Tita Cory and her family.
My fellow bloggers, I invite you to Touch a blogger: Tie a yellow ribbon for Cory Aquino! Very simply:
Create an entry entitled: Touch a blogger: Tie a yellow ribbon for Cory Aquino!. A link to this original entry will be appreciated, but is not required.
Post a yellow ribbon in your blog for President Cory Aquino. Whatever form of yellow ribbon that your creative imagination can come up with.
Invite other bloggers to tie a yellow ribbon for Cory.
President Cory Aquino has done a lot for us Filipinos. She’s suffered more than enough. I might not agree with some of the things that she has done but that is beside the point. My respect is unconditional and I will thank this great woman for the biggest and most valuable gift that she has given us Filipinos – giving back our freedom and liberty. And as a blogger, there is not much that I can do, other than offer prayers for Cory Aquino.
With this, let’s show our love and respect for Cory through our blogs and I invite all the writers of Barrio Siete, readers and commenters to Tie a yellow ribbon for Cory Aquino!
Thank you!

Not being negative here but prayers won't make her well... No matter how much healing masses will be held for her, it won't work!
Lalo na yang mga healing masses na started by politicians? Lalo lang sasama ang kalagayan ni Mrs. Aquino... Kasi, pakitang tao lang yang mga healing masses na yan eh... nagpapabango lang ng pangalan ang mga pulitikong yan... Kung gusto nilang gumaling si Mrs. Aquino, they should go to their rooms, turn down the lights, and pray silently...
Even you guys, na nagpopost ng yellow ribbons sa blogs nila, that won't work... Say silent prayers for her... No offense to anyone but as the bible says, prayers made in public won't be answered...

Hi. A woman of worth like Tita Cory deserves all the prayers of people whose lives she touched. She will always be in my prayers.
@ Kurog
Prayers work wonders when all else fails...
I am one with you, though, in denouncing those who are using the situation to show their 'false' concern on this great lady's condition. We know who they are. Yun mga nagpapakitang tao para lang maging headline....
I am not a very religious person in the mold of Tita Cory but I have gotten answers through fervent prayers. Just now, He heard me.....
