    napanood ko din yung story ni lolo jan..nakakaiyak talaga, at his age parang hindi na nakaranas ng pahinga magsilbi sanang inspirasyon si lolo jan sa mga taong malalakas ang pangangatawan na ayaw magsitrabaho, at umaasa lang sa abuloy, anak ang pinagta trabaho at limos, or even worse, sa pagnanakaw at panloloko sa kapwa..

    Talk about love for family and determination!

    I feel disgusted with myself! Sobra hanga ko kay Lolo Jan, I know that I can never do what he does. I feel like a weakling.

    Konting problema lang, I complain na nga eh tapos eto ang isang 82 year old na kahanga-hanga.

    May his tribe increase!

    I watched a rerun of this episode just tonight via Sine Totoo. Lolo Jan's story is inspiring and a personal gut check.

    Claire Lee, the one who wrote the letter to Wish Ko Lang, posted a copy of the letter in her blog (clairelee.multiply.com/journal/item/2/Wish_Ko_Lang_Letter)

    Lolo Jan lost his son and daughter in law in a vehicular accident (this fact was not mentioned in the episode) that is why he had to take care of his granddaughters.

    Lolo Jan, thank you for being an inspiration.

    Saw it earlier too.

    It would be great if they can do a follow-up story on Lolo Jan and his family, how they're doing a year later.

    ^^ Nakakaantig naman ng damdamin ito. Napanood ko rin ito.

    Marami ng natulungan ang "Wish Ko Lang". Kaso madalas, iniiwasan ko na manood. Nakakaiyak kasi yung mga episodes nila.......

    di ko napanood ang episoede,
    pero just reading this thread touches me,

    these are the people that deserve the care and help of everyone, hindi yong mga patay gutom na ayaw gumalaw.

    hope I can help in a little way, I salute to this respectable man
