Neri Naig on miscarriage healed by faith, hope and letting go

MANILA, Philippines – Actress Neri Naig recalled the time when she and her husband, Parokya ni Edgar frontman Chito Miranda lost their first child when she had a miscarriage and how faith in God, hope and acceptance ushered her to the road to recovery and joy.

Naig posted Monday an ultrasound photo from exactly four years ago, May 27, 2015.

“May 27, 2015. Nakapag ultra sound na kami ni Chito nun para sa una naming baby. June 3, 2015, wala nang heartbeat ang baby namin,” Naig wrote.

The actress opened up her emotions after learning of the miscarriage and even admitted  questioning God.

“Devastated. Galit na galit ako sa mundo nun even kay God nung panahon na yun. Bakit?! Yun ang palagi kong tanong sa Kanya. Bakit ipagkakait na bigyan ako ng chance na maging isang ina? Bakit kinuha agad ang baby ko?! Bakit!” Naig said.

Naig then addressed other moms who are undergoing the same feeling of loss: “Sa lahat ng nakakarelate dito. Alam ko ang pakiramdam ng nawalan. Sobrang sakit. Pero malalagpasan mo rin yan. Darating ang tamang panahon na talagang ipagkakaloob ni God sayo.”

“Ngayon, may napaka kulit at healthy baby Miggy na kami. Sobrang perfect baby boy para sa aming mag asawa. Sobrang love na love namin at mahal na mahal din kaming mag asawa,” she added.

Naig and Miranda welcomed their first child, Miguel Alfonso in 2016.

“Ok lang na i-release mo ang galit mo. Pero wag kang susuko. Wag kang mawalan ng faith sa sarili mo, at lalo na kay God. Alam kong parati mo ‘tong naririnig, totoo na lahat ng nangyayare sa atin ay may rason at totoo rin na darating ang para sa atin. Patience is a virtue ika nga,” Naig continued.
