Salamat, Doc!

I got a terrible news yesterday that my Derma passed away by cardiac arrest. She was  also a mom, wife and a friend to everyone. I would  say I've had a personal relationship with her aside from the professional because I've come to see her on a regular basis the past years. She was also our customer because she is a Globe  telecom subscriber who would often call or visit our store when she has concerns about her accounts. Not to mention her clinic is a walk away from our Store. So I could just take my lunch break and have an IPL treatment or a facial from her clinic whenever the desire and the need arises. Talk about a Derma being your primary health care physician. No wonder vanity has become a billion dollar business. She was the doctor mentioned in my other entry who misdiagnosed my skin disorder a few years back.  She even gave me permit to leave from work as well as all the   Prescription for expensive antibiotic. That could have been a pass for me to have a hooky and leave from work but  because I don't want to spend a lot For medicine I have to make sure if I do have that disease because I didn't have the symptom. True enough mine was just a simple case of skin infection brought about by my dog. In spite of that, Doc is still very much dear to me. Lately I've been seeing an OB because I have a case of imbalance hormones that results to irregular menstruation ( sorry TMI) 
 I've taken anti fertility pills which also treated my adult pimples ( trust me adult Acne are for real) And then I was also given a prescription for Melasma as maybe a result of me taking the pills. It's crazy! Talk about an oxymoron..I mean I wasn't going back to my Derma because the OB kind of fill my needs. But of course I was already thinking of getting a shot of Botox just for kicks. I was actually thinking about it days on end before I learned the news of my Derma passing. 
Procrastination is my middle name. (I'm still working a great deal about this) Life - it's hard and fleeting but it's also exciting. The uncertainties and the unpredictability is what makes it beautiful. My Derma might be gone and it's sad but I know she has lived quite a life, leaving a legacy of making others feel better about themselves by making them feel pretty and nice, me included.
