"I’m sorry if all those years, I did not fully trust that I’ll ever see this day... Your doctors said to be ready for the worst: speech, movement, comprehension are all challenged and may not even come; that you might stay in bed your whole life. Yet we kept on going, with no rush and no pressure -- each day, each year, one school, one milestone at a time," she wrote.

"Look where you took me today. We’ve gone miles from that bed, haven’t we? Thank you for being unlimited, undaunted, unafraid. Your indomitable spirit powered through Thea. That is your gift from God. Don’t ever lose it. (Life is half fate and half you. Half blessings and half hard work. Grateful that my daughters are way better people than me."

"Ako bilang mom 'yung bigat sa puso, sa damdamin, sa isip. Pero I can't imagine what she went through. 'Yun nga noong pinanganak ko siya na hydrocephalus buti na lang medyo naka-work na ako noon so we were able to support the operation. Pero kasi nag-recur 'yon when she was 10 years old so mas mahirap," Aquino recalled in an interview on "Magandang Buhay."

"You just have to keep your faith and you have to be strong para everyone around her is strong also," she added.
