From Beijing, I spent one night at home and flew to Davao early this morning.  I was in Ateneo De Davao to conduct a mentorship workshop.  I fly back to Manila tomorrow. 

I don't get to visit Davao very often, but when I do, it's always a delight because I meet up with some of the nicest people, one of whom is our own Sheila Nisperos.

Redg called me this evening to say that Tausi, our eldest dog, suddenly fell ill.  She's 11 years old already and has been with us since she was a puppy.  What's strange is that over the last few days she was fine. Even this morning and this afternoon, she was perfectly normal.  This evening, she suddenly started trembling uncontrollably. She refused to get up. She refused to eat.  Redg is sending her to the vet tomorrow morning.
