ACTRESS Rita Daniela has finally fulfilled a promise she made to her mother in 2019 when she vowed to take her on a relaxing vacation in Boracay after a difficult battle with breast cancer.
On Instagram, Rita shared that she made the promise after her mother was diagnosed with cancer, hoping the trip would lift her spirits. But life had other plans: the pandemic hit, and Rita became a first-time mom.
“Time really is precious… but the pandemic happened, I gave birth, I became a first-time mom. I wasn’t able to fulfill my promise right away,” she wrote.
Now that her mom has officially passed the remission stage, Rita said the long-delayed trip finally pushed through.
“She deserves this long and relaxing trip,” she said, adding that the experience was deeply meaningful. “What a treat from a child’s and daughter’s heart. Such a treat when you see your parent/s happy—and the happiness comes from within.”
The actress also thanked God for the opportunity and ended her post with a sweet message for her mother: “Uno and I love you!”
