𝐈 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐠𝐡𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐣𝐨𝐫 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐰𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐛𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫… 𝐌𝐘𝐒𝐄𝐋𝐅.
As a Financial Advisor, sanay ako na ako yung nagsasabi sa clients ko, “𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐡𝐚𝐛𝐚𝐧𝐠 𝐡𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐭𝐡𝐲 𝐩𝐚 𝐭𝐚𝐲𝐨.”
But this time, I found myself on the other side of the story.
Recently, many of you saw my post and asked me if what happened to me. Pinag-isipan ko talagang mabuti if I’m going to share this.
But now, I’m ready to open up and share this with you..
𝐈 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐃𝐈𝐀𝐆𝐍𝐎𝐒𝐄𝐃 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐀 𝐒𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐊𝐄. And yes, I AM a stroke survivor.
And honestly, hindi ko rin inexpect na mangyayari ito sa akin.
I’ve always been very conscious about what I eat. I try to take care of my lifestyle, stay active, and be mindful of my health. I thought I was doing enough to protect myself.
But sometimes, life reminds us that no matter how careful we are, we can never completely predict what tomorrow holds.
Last July 25, 2026, I was rushed to the hospital in Iloilo because of dizziness and left sided weakness. My BP was really high at 180/120.
During that moment, I know deep within me that stroke happened to me.
Ang dami kong naiisip that time.
“Pa’no na ang family ko?”
“Pa’no na ang mga pangarap ko?”
“Shall I live with a half-dead body?”
Thank God, He gave me another chance. 🙏🏻
Dahil mabilis akong naitakbo sa hospital, naging maganda ang prognosis and I was able to recover well.
After 4 days of staying in ICU and 2 days on a regular room, Salamat sa Diyos, I was finally then discharged.
What made this experience a little lighter was knowing that I had insurance to help me financially.
My Critical Illness benefit and Hospitalization Allowance claims were approved, giving me a financial safety net while I focus on something more important, my recovery. ❤️
𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟓, 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝟏𝟐𝐧𝐧 — We submitted the claims requirements for Critical illness and hospitalization allowance claims
𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟓, 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝟔𝐩𝐦 — 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐝𝐚𝐲, 𝐈 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐝 𝐚 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐝. ANG BILIS!
𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟏𝟎 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝟏𝟏 — Claim proceeds have already been credited to my account.
MARAMING SALAMAT, PRU LIFE UK! ❤️
Because of this, hindi na kailangan sabayan ng stress sa medical expenses ang stress ng pagpapagaling.
THANK YOU LORD FOR THE ANOTHER GIFT OF LIFE. Napakabuti mo, Lord. 🙏🏻
This experience made me realize even more why I continue to advocate for insurance. This even made me more motivated to continue what I am doing. 🙏🏻
Insurance isn’t about expecting something bad to happen. It’s about preparing for the possibility that life may not go according to plan.
We can’t always control what happens to our health.
But we can prepare for the financial impact.
This time, I’m not just sharing a claim story as an advisor.
I’m sharing it as a claimant. As a patient. As someone who realized firsthand the value of being protected.
Because I never thought my first major claim would be my own. But here I am learning firsthand that no matter how careful we are with our health, there are things in life that we simply cannot predict.
So while you still have the privilege of time, benefit of good health, and power to choose, please do protect yourself, your loved ones and your future. Because 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐅𝐀𝐌𝐈𝐋𝐘’𝐒 𝐏𝐄𝐀𝐂𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐌𝐈𝐍𝐃 𝐌𝐀𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐒. ❤️
