hi, im not even sure if what i'm doing is right or if i'm at the right site to do this thing, but honestly, deep inside i'm hoping this will be the start of it all...
let me tell you the story,... our story.
my mom (gloria pahayac magadan) she's 63 now; came from a poor family in limokon dimiao bohol, in search for a greener pasteur, at a young age, she left bohol with a neighbor, to work in mindanao, that was in 1964, from there she worked hard for survival, because she lacked academic skills she lost contact with her parents and siblings... she reached manila and worked under different people, until she met my father who is from ilocos, i have two older siblings. the life in manila was difficult then so my dad took us home to laoag, she wrote several times in dimiao but nobody responded. my dad died in 1984, so still twas a hard time for my mom raising us up alone. WE WANT HER TO REUNITE WITH HER FAMILY IN DIMIAO, PLEASE HELP US, TNX

Welcome to Tubag Bohol, Luisa.

My mother is from Dimiao and I have lots of relatives living there. I will try to ask if they happen to know your family or if they know some people with the same family name as your mother.

i'm happy having found my relatives, but more so, having made my nanay so much happier now.. me n my siblings grew up with no memories of them, only vague stories
by my mom. now, i brought home to laoag my cousin richard (whom, like my mom travelled away from home and works in laguna, in manila etc, to be able to support himself, but he got laid off) and tomorrow i will help him enroll in one of the colleges here, he's 21y.o., but i believe it's not yet late for school, right?

me n my mom are both excited to see our relatives and cyempre the beautiful bohol.

murang rent a car, please help me find one, a car will do kahit 4days lang, maipasyal ko lang nanay ko, i believe aatake asthma nya pag napagod sa kabibiyahe..

We give thanks to Our Lord Jesus Christ for having our friend Concepcion (Bulak) and others in forwarding information to have your family reunited.

This is an example, that there is no impossibilities for Christ Jesus.

Luisa, we are reminded lagi in this personal testimony of yours of Christ's Beautiful message:

â€œAsk, and it will be given to you; seek, and you will find; knock, and it will be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and the one who seeks finds, and to the one who knocks it will be opened.
--Matthew 7:7

Happy Sunday to you guys!
Remember, bitaw, Ask and we shall recieve. Knock and it shall be opened to us!

All Glory, Honor, and Praise goes to Jesus Christ!
Our Salvation.

Luisa, you take care and may your steps be guided by the Holy Spirit.
We pray that you enjoy your experience in Bohol. Our beautiful Island.

Yours In Christ,
Lorenzo

But I am glad Bulak was able to make the direct connection. My eyes really welled after reading the exciting developments and the prospect of a reunion in a few days! Thanks, Bulak!

I hope you can write about this, Mike, for national newspapers. Or better still, witness the act of reuniting. A good article on TB's role in this case will certainly attract more Boholanos to know about and join TB. That will increase our rating from 4 to 10!

yup, that's a good idea, i was thinking of MMK before hehe but a news article would suffice. looks like Luisa has pictures to go along with this article...

i was more intrigue on the life/love story of her mom...from bohol to mindanao to manila to Laoag...the ilocandia. her mom would be bisajang ilocana

during drinking sessions, ilocanos call themselves GI = Genuine Ilocano ngarud
Luisa's mom would be, BI

Walay kinutubang pasalamat sa tanang miyembro ning atong pundok bisaja pinaagi aning Tubagbohol. Akong tim-os pasalamat sa nagdumala,sa nag paluyo aning mabulokong pundok sa kaliwat ni Dagohoy. Ang atong kaliwat nag gagikan sa usa ka tribo nga mapanggaon sa pamilya, responsabling lumolupyo ug mahadlokon sa Diyos. Akong pangaliya nga unta ang karaang lama sa atong kagahapon ang mag pabiling lakra sa atong kasing kasing nga kita usa ka bol-anon nga inila sa pulong bisaja nga kaliwat ni Dagohoy. Mabuhi ang kina-iyang bol-anon, isabwag ang binhi nga gi tikad ug gi amoma sa sulod nga katuigan nga hantod karon nagpabilin nga handorawan sa atong kagahapon. Buligan unta kita sa atong pangaliya sa labaw nga maka gagahom.

I can't help but cry tears of joy for this. Now I know why the string of messages in this forum are called "threads." It's because our lives are like threads that are enmeshed at certain points in the past, present or future, and this is the venue that spotlights those links.

I am also surprised by the many interconnections I have stumbled into since joining TB. I am surprised to learn that Jun Ayag's mom was a friend of my own mother, and that I was occasionally left to her care when I was just a toddler. Jun and I must have played with each other as kids. I don't really remember well...

That TB is able to connect new friends and reconnect old ties means that it has really penetrated not only Boholanos' lives but also people with ties to Bohol like Luisa. Motivated by his frustation at nobody ever answering any inquiry about or from Bohol, Mike must be truly happy that many questions, prayers and dreams are being answered daily in this forum. God bless us all!

sir benelyne, i did shed a lot of tears too, tears of happiness, i really can't believe it was that simple to find them after 45 years.. now, we can finally go home to bohol.

the feeling was so overwhelming, it was joyous...

if you really pray hard for something, God will do the rest, sometimes in such a mysterious way, that you can't almost recognize it's done...

another thing is that, there are a lot of people who wants to help, they are God's miracle.

Sad to say that our beach resorts are now adjusted to the tune of hard currencies. It is very pricy in Panglao. You can avail of a public beach not far from Dumaluan and bring your own provisions. Check some websites on Panglao beach resorts. God bless Adeng Luisa!

Sa Dimiao mismo merong high-end resort. I forgot the name though, but it's very easy to locate because it is the only one in the highway barangay of Balbalan (what a name! In the dialect it means a place where the "manananggals wait for their prey). Well, we must not judge (the beauty of) a barangay by its name.

Hi, Luisa. I hope you will be successful in your search for relatives in Dimiao. I have been doing some search of my own myself....pertaining to the Basa side of my family in Guindulman.

I suppose it would be a big help if you would mention the names of your mother's parents as these would definitely connect them to people.

If your mama studied in the local high school, this would be a lead, too. Presumably, this high school might have an alumni association that has a presence on the internet.

Or, try to get hold of the baranggay captain of the barrio where your Mama was born. The captain's network is very extensive. In fact, he might just be the best person to assist you in your quest.

Good luck.

Ricky

actually that pic is an exception, common habal2x is just a motorcycle without planks or extra add-on and can ride 3 passengers next to the driver.

ppol in the barrio prefer to ride this rather than wait for other passengers to fill up a jeepney. of course if you carry a lot of baggages, then you're better off waiting for the jeep to fill up then go.

God bless you Luisa and ur mom and enjoy ur stay in Bohol and regards to your relatives there. do give us an update if you go to tagbilaran and find an icafe.

(Sayang, you won't be able to see the Melrose Theater with it Baroque Design. It stood along CPG Avenue before. It was beautiful. It's just sad that the city government does not know anything about art, antiques and its value. They don't care about history as well. They had it destroyed to make way for a "spacious" parking lot. hayy!)
