“Happy birthday to my sweetheart of nearly 24 years! This birthday is extra special because it comes at a time when after a period of setbacks, heartaches, pain, after a truly challenging period you have not just survived but have triumphed,” the senator wrote.

“I am so proud of you and what you have accomplished knowing the countless treacherous mountains you had to climb and the many horrible dragons you had to slay to do so,” he added.

Pangilinan also prayed for Cuneta’s good health and safety, and that their love would conquer all challenges.

“I know everlasting love is not easy and yet here we are still committed to try with all our hearts to make it happen and doing so one day at a time. With God’s grace, love, our love for one another, will conquer all,” he said.

“I will always be here for you cheering you on. Finding ways, day in and day out, to look out for you, to care for you, to make things right with and for you and to love you, dearly, truly, wholeheartedly now, always, forever,” he added. /cbb
