Welps, her battle is over. Just around 3am this morning, former president Cory Aquino died due to cardiac arrest. Though everyone thought she’s gonna make it, I’m just glad that in her last few days, she was sleeping peacefully until her last breath. I shouldn’t be this affected, yet I am. For she was a BIG part of history and she made everything happen. So here’s to her successful fight over the years of service to the ungrateful Filipinos.
Aquino, who was battling colon cancer for about two years, died at 3:18 a.m. of cardio-respiratory arrest, after being confined at the Makati Medical Center for more than a month due to loss of appetite.
Her legacy was the restoration of democracy and its institutions in the country when she led a bloodless, military-backed people power revolt in 1986 that toppled the dictatorship of then President Ferdinand Marcos.
