Memorial

Fifth Jose Viktor Dela Cruz

xx xx, xxxx - xx xx, xxxx

Last February 20, 2018, we had a Bundle of joy who’s going to complete our Dela Cruz’s band of brothers, we have Thirdy, we also have Fourth and yes, for the completion, we then had FIFTH. This baby has brought our family happiness and sadness at the same time. He brought us into dredging state, from being confined to having NEONATAL PNEUMONIA, then misdiagnosis to having CONGENITAL ADRENAL HYPERPLASIA down to the last end, that is to having BILIARY ATRESIA. Last February 18, 2019, God has answered all our prayers, we’re able to bring FIFTH to India for LIVER TRANSPLANT. Who would’ve ever thought that on his 1st year birthday we’re celebrating it at the hospital but still, we’re blessed to have it done there because during that time, he’s still alive. Again, we’re in and out of the hospital because FIFTH is a ticking bomb, every waking day is a Blessing but then again, maybe God’s plan is Greater than ours, the day before his Liver Transplant procedure, he died. Yes, you’ve read that right, our son died and we as his parents fought for him until the end . On the very last drop of faith and hope, God took away our son. We cannot fathom the reason behind. To our FIFTH, there’s no other baby who’ll complete the Dela Cruz’s band of brothers unless it’s You again. You’ve embarked us unforgettable memory and you’ll surely missed. We Love you anak.

Dear family, you wrote this: "God took away our son. We cannot fathom the reason behind". Job, a man who suffered a lot wrote:" It is unthinkable for the true God to act wickedly, for the Almighty to do wrong" Job (34:10). And (James 1:13) "When under trial, let no one say: 'I am being tried by God.' for with evil things God cannot be tried, nor does himself try anyone." On the contrary, he suffers for us and has a plan to resurrect all loved ones that are dead a lot sooner than later. Wouldn't be wonderful to have your beloved little Fifth again? Be sure of that!!!! The Bible guides us on our path towards His blessings. Be courageous and work towards seeing him again.
