Naka ilang balik na ako sa regular branches and laging ubos. Like parang 1 box lang daw dumadating tapos tagal ng kasunod. Di rin kasi sya available sa savemore kaya sa Dali lang ako nabili. Mas mahal din sa toktik.
I've noticed that Kim Eunwoo and Jeongwoo have been appearing less and less on TROS this year, sometimes only once every 2–4 weeks.
Do you think it's because they're getting older and it's becoming harder to create content around their daily lives? I just miss seeing them regularly.
I also have a feeling they might leave the show in a year or two, especially as Eunwoo becomes more aware of the cameras and possibly more camera-shy.
Problem/Goal:
​
Posting this on behalf of a friend because she feels hopeless right now and doesn't know what the best step to take is. I can no longer give her other options because sobrang naaawa na ako sa kanya, and I’m hoping we can get advice or insights from people who may have experienced something similar.
​
Her main concern is: How can she move forward without abandoning her brother, but also without sacrificing the rest of her life?
​
She wants to know if it is reasonable to ask her nephew (her brother’s son) and his wife, as the immediate family members, to take a more active role in her brother’s long-term care and decisions. She also wants to know if there are legal protections or options for someone who has been the long-term caregiver of an adult with schizophrenia.
​
Context: My friend is now in her 40s. For many years, siya at ang mama niya ang nag-alaga sa brother niya who has schizophrenia. They carried the responsibility together until her mother passed away due to dementia, leaving her to handle everything alone.
​
Over the years, sobrang bigat na ng responsibility. She had to make difficult decisions because her brother’s condition can become very challenging, especially during relapses. Even caregivers who were hired before eventually gave up because they also struggled handling his condition.
​
Because of this, ilang beses na ring na-confine ang brother niya sa psych home care facility. Malaki rin ang naging gastos and a significant part of her own money was spent on his treatment and care.
​
Recently, her brother’s son who is based in the US volunteered to pay for the facility. Pero nabigla siya nang bigla na lang inihatid sa bahay niya ang brother niya without prior discussion. Ang sinabi sa kanya, wala na raw pambayad sa facility for now and pakiusap muna na alagaan niya habang nag-iipon ulit at naghahanap ng possible new arrangement.
​
The problem is, walang malinaw na timeline or concrete long-term plan. Natatakot siya na baka maulit lang ang nangyari before — na temporary lang daw pero eventually siya na naman ang maging permanent caregiver.
​
Because she cannot leave her brother alone at home, napilitan siyang iwan ang work and look for online side hustles just to support herself. Nagbibigay naman ang anak ng allowance para sa father niya, pero for her, the issue is not just financial support. Ang concern niya is her own welfare, future, and the fact that the responsibility once again fell entirely on her.
​
Wala rin silang ibang kamag-anak na malalapitan for help, kaya halos lahat ng caregiving responsibility napunta sa kanya.
​
Previous Attempts: Before this, she and her mother already tried their best to manage her brother’s condition for many years. They hired caregivers, tried home care arrangements, and admitted him to psych facilities when the situation became too difficult to handle.
​
She has sacrificed a huge part of her life caring for her family. She lost work opportunities, delayed her own plans, and feels like she only lived for caregiving. She understands that her brother needs support, but she has reached a point where she also feels physically, emotionally, and financially exhausted.
​
She is not trying to abandon her brother. She just wants a sustainable solution where the responsibility is shared and where she can still have a chance to rebuild her own life while she still has time.
​
Because of the situation, she is even considering selling her house and moving away so there will be urgency to find a permanent arrangement instead of everything falling back on her again.
​
She is also considering getting legal advice if, by next year, her brother is still under her care without any clear plan from his son regarding his father’s long-term needs.
​
Would really appreciate advice from people who have experienced something similar:
​
​
If you were in her situation, what would you do?
​
​
Is it reasonable to ask the son and his wife to take over the major responsibility and decision-making for his father?
​
​
Are there laws or legal options that can protect a long-term caregiver from being left with all the responsibility?
​
​
What are realistic long-term arrangements for someone with schizophrenia who needs ongoing support?
​
​
Thank you in advance to anyone who can share insights or advice po.
Hello po. Need ko lang ng ideas to start off re. in selling a property. I already watched some reels from real estate vloggers na nagpost ng steps on how to transfer tax dec to your name and what not pero medyo lost parin ako.
To start off, my mom passed away and di ko na naasikaso paglipat ng tax dec ng tinitirahan namin back the under my name. Tbh pinangalan ko sa nanay ko itong lupa kesa sakin when we bought it out of love. Ngayon, since may kapatid ako na willing naman mag EJS so check na tayo sa part nayan.
So, ang siste ay ako na po nagtutuloy ng bayad sa tax dec. May bahay po pala nakatayo dito. Kaso tbh di ko alam kung may bldg permit ito sa munisipyo or what not kasi sy nag asikaso ipatayo ng madalian eh di naman uso samin yung bldg permit etc pag may tinatayo dito so idk kung meron non. Yung house namin ay di talaga yung complete built kasi minadali ito back then like basta matayo, mabubungan ganun para malipatan.
Ngayon sobrang tight po ang budget ko so DIY nalang gagawin ko to transfer it under my name. Nasa akin pa blueprint ng lupa aside sa updated tax dec. 20+ thousand lang assessed value so I assume mababa or wala ako babayan sa estate tax?
Can someone check po sana if the tax dec only declares the land.
Now, due to circumstances, plano ko na po kasi ito ibenta in the next two years and I understand na mas mababa selling price kasi walang titulo. Gang tax dec nalang talaga kaya kong gastusan due to finacial constrains.
Can you give me a starting point para masimulan ko ito and estimated na magagastos along the way.
Any inputs are appreciated.
Found my old Netopia membership ID from 2000 while going through some old keepsakes.
Instant flashback sa mga after-school tambay days ko sa Morayta branch, long before I got my own iMac G3 or G4 (I forgot). Back then, every hour online felt like an adventure—discovering new websites, chatting with friends, and exploring a digital world that still felt brand new.
It's amazing how a small piece of plastic can bring back so many memories.
Good times. Simpler times. 🖥️💾
Late to the game maybe, but I’ve noticed more Korean actors appearing on TikTok lately. Particularly those with fewer recent mainstream kdrama projects. Wishing they land new roles soon. Hwaiting.
We have schizo relative na narule out na ni NCMH na wala nang lunas and lifetime treatment na. Nagsara na po yung home care na tinutuluyan nya for the last 3 yrs and need na namin sya ilipat kasi none of us are capable to take care of him and his son is overseas pero di rin kalakihan kita. Nearby relatives are far away and I can no longer afford to let him stay in my home kasi ang ingay nya sa gabi kahit may meds and naiinis na kapitbahay and ako lang mag isa. I sacrificed to leave my job temporarily kasi no one can take care of him atm but we need to transfer him to another home care asap kasi mas takot sya sa hindi kakilala din. Nagkaka anxiety na naman ako. I'm also orphaned I'm afraid baka mag-toll ito sa akin over time (pls don't get me wrong). Baka po may mareco kayo around cavite na 20k for schizo case as long term stay na. Ang mamahal ng schizo case sa Rizal or NCR home care. Thank you in advance.
