Happy For Bf

The last quarter of 2009 has been difficult for my bf (boyfriend).

When Typhoon Ondoy ravaged the country in September his surplus shop which is located in Marikina (one of the hardest hit areas) was submerged in flood water and many of the items on sale were destroyed.

While he was in the process of rebuilding his business, the owner of the place he was renting for his shop sold the land to another person without informing his tenants. Bf was only given a week to transfer to another location.

It was a good thing that there was a place a few meters from the shop’s former location that was available for rent only a few days before the deadline.

Stressed from the business transfer and the loss in profit because of the flood, he became very sick. The doctors’ initial diagnosis was leptospirosis because during the height of Typhoon Ondoy, he waded in the flood water to salvage his motorcycle that was swept away by the flood water.

I was so grateful when his laboratory results came out and indicated that it was not leptospirosis but viral infection.

The first month of 2010 has been kind to him. Yesterday, he excitedly told me that his business is really picking up. He was able to recover from his business losses last year and he has regular customers visiting his shop already.

I am so happy for him, I pray that 2010 will truly be a fruitful year for him!
