The responsibility placed on the shoulders of parents is unbelievably heavy. Imagine having someone who is completely dependent on you to live. Parents have it hard but the return they get from the love of their child is worth it. So no matter how difficult it is, especially if life has dealt you with a strong blow, you do whatever it takes to be there for your child. This is why a lot of netizens looked up to comedian Ogie Diaz when he shared his family’s struggles.
Not only is he a great father to the artists he handles in showbiz but also to the five children he has with partner Sol del Rosario. His commitment and unconditional love for them has been lauded by netizens all over the country.
In any comedian’s case, it’s hard to pinpoint if they are going through a rough time or not because they bring us so much joy. But on the DZMM radio show “Good Vibes,” Ogie came clean about the hardest struggle he had to face as a father. There he revealed that his youngest daughter, MeeraKhel, was a premature baby that was born at six months.
Of course, that raised numerous complications that had the family against the ropes. MeeraKhel was fighting to survive and Ogie fought beside her with everything that he had. Spending PHP 2.5 million for MeeraKhel’s outstanding hospital fees.
“Ngayon ‘yung bunso ko 10 months old na. … Six months inilabas na, 680 grams noong inilabas. Parang fetus lang. Diyos ko, malaki ang investment ko diyan sa bunso ko, P2.5 million, oh di ba?”
Back on December 9th, he shared a picture with his 10-month-old and dedicated a sweet message to her:
“Isa sa mga pinagkukunan ko ng lakas — si Meerah. Happy 10th month old, anak! Malayo pa ang ating lalakbayin para matupad ko ang mga pangarap ko para sa inyong lima. Di titigil si daddy hangga’t kaya. Hangga’t malakas. Hangga’t may nagtitiwala. Hanggang lumalaban nang patas. I love you, anak! Kaya yan din ang pangalan mo kasi lumaban ka rin sa buhay.”
