When I was still starting my career in the IT Industry way back 2008. I did not know that life would hit me hard. My mom suffered from a stroke. Yes, and because of that unexpected event, I became an instant bread winner and provider of everything. I remember so much that my only helper that time was my company HMO. I was thankful enough. However, reality hit me so hard when we were out in the hospital. Imagine the daily needs, and expenses, etc. Her medicine, therapy, checkups, daily needs specifically for her, etc was a sky rocket that I don’t know what to do. Remembering the early months of her therapy today, it makes me question how I made it without even a single insurance. It was and it is difficult, both emotional and financial. It was the road that I don’t like anyone experiencing. It drains me both emotionally and financially.
My mom used to work hard in our small sari-sari store at that time. She was happy she was earning. However, she was not able to get insurance to protect her health. As years passed by, I understood what we missed when she was still healthy and capable. I learned the hard way. When you are still healthy and capable, don’t wait for that unexpected event to happen. Protect what matters most to you. You deserve much better. Act now before it's too late. Protect what you need to protect. Today is the right time.
