Although Palaya’s life is full of heavy responsibilities because she raises her four children all by herself, she does not give up in life at all. “I must not lose hope. My children will be on their own and they are all counting on me.”
Batbat man ng dalahing pasakit ang buhay ni Palaya dahil mag-isa niyang itinataguyod ang kanyang apat na anak, hindi pa rin siya nawawalan ng pag-asa sa buhay. “Kailangang hindi ako mawalan ng pag-asa. Kawawa naman ang mga anak ko, wala naman silang ibang aasahan kundi ako.”
