Dearest Merlinda,
This has been such a great shock to us considering that I was in your office on Thursday night talking about your plans for Costa Rica.
You have been such a wonderful friend since you moved to Tallahassee
many years ago. You are such a dynamic,vibrant and energetic person so it is very difficult to imagine you under these circumstances.
We are praying for your quick recovery. Hurry up so you can enjoy Costa Rica and the Mediterranean cruise you planned. Meanwhile, may God be with you every step of the way. We love you.
Rocky, Lara, Leovi, and Marissa send their love too

To Merlynne,
I’m just one of the many that are praying for you. God is good and merciful and He knows what’s best. Imagine if this happened during your anniversary trip to Costa Rica.
I’m wishing for your quick recovery because I know that there are things ahead that you’re looking forward to. But once you have recovered, please take things a little bit slower and enjoy the time that God has given.
In this crazy world that we live in, somehow it seems that the earth’s rotation has gone a little faster or maybe we just got older. I’m also praying for Pat and your children because I know what they’re going through because I’ve been there. God listens to one earnest prayer but when there’s a multitude of earnest prayers, He notices how important the person is that’s being prayed for. You are a very important person that’s why we are all praying for you.

My Mom, Amparo Galang was Merlyn's first grade teacher at Sampaloc SDA Church Elementary School.I was then a first grader too at PUC Elem school. Many nights at the dinner table Mom would talk bout this very "bright" student that she has. She described her as very cute, the littlest girl in a small class.She said that she almost didn't have to teach her anything new as she knew everything that even a 3rd grader needed to know.When Mom was teaching other students their ABC's and 123's she was already reading the Reader's Digest and doing multiplications.I met Merlyn early on in one of their several school programs. Mom assigned her to memorize a loooong poem , "Between 2 Angels" and she memorized it to her the very the next day, then delivered it with actions and heart rending emotions in one of those school events.
Sampaloc SDA School had a very good Rondalla Group headed by Mr Ricafrente.She was the youngest member of the group.In one of their performances in one political rally, Merlyn sat at the very front looking only at the conductor as her nimble little fingers of her left hand flew across the frets of her banduria, a 14 stringed instrument. A revered political figure was in the audience, the Vice President of the Philippines, Vice President Pelaez who was only looking at the tiny girl in the very front. "Surely", he thought, "she is just pretending to play music, this piece is too fast for her to hit the notes right." So, he got up from his chair, approached the group playing and put his ears right next to Merlyns instument and discovered with delight that she was playing the lead and didn't stop until the rendition was over. What followed next was a thunderous applause and a photo op with the Vice President.Oh I would love to see that picture again. She knew how to play all the instuments in the rondalla. You name it, she knows how to play it, banduria,octavina,guitar, piccolo, even that gigantic base. But no, the Prof would not let her do it because she had to stand on a chair to play it. She later played the accordion at school events and camping trips. She would sit at the edge of the chair and sway her body to maneuver the heavy instument. She used exotic chords and she played in triads and octaves making the instrument sound like a symphony. She has perfect pitch, and truly a gifted gift from God.
Merlyn: always excelled in MUSIC, loved MEDICINE, and the greatest MOTHER to 3 lovely sons.
We love you dearly. God Bless you and all your loved ones.

Hoping Wednesday more answered prayers come your way! I know it must be difficult to wait and watch. Just know that many are praying for Merlina to recovery in God's time.

Tony and I just read the latest posting with anxious anticipation.
Encouraging report! It has been what we neuro ICU nurses term a roller coaster ride but Merlinda is staying - right on target - for that much anticipated wake up call.
Please be sure you guys eat and get a bit of exercise in the cool fresh air, to keep your strength up and help with stress tolerance.
We continue to pray for Merlinda and each one of you.
Know Merlinda likes scarves so I am knitting her a really pretty one. What we knitters term a prayer scarf where the knitter prays for the recipient while knitting. Read between the lines - burning the midnight oil on this project.
Hugs!

Merlynne,
What an encouraging news today. Slow but surely is the name of the game. God is leading so far, I'm sure about that. Rest all you want Merlynne but give us some progress each day. We love you gf.

Hi Merlinda,
Here I am again still anxiously waiting for the big news that you are extubated and talking, but it's ok to sleep a little longer so you heal better. Rest coz when you make up you have a lot of catching up to do, just to read all these e-mails will take you days to read them. It becomes my daily ritual to read for updates of your condition. God bless you and your family, you are always in mind and prayers.

Just learned of your condition today and was saddened by the news.
I got to read your daily condition updates and will continue to pray for your recovery. God is bigger than any of our circumstances and let's allow Him to be in control. Our love to you and your family.
