A post by one Aly Mendoza is going viral with over 11k shares due to its movie-like story.
Three weeks prior to sharing the post, Aly received a scheduled email from her dead father, Bing, who succumbed to chronic kidney and cardiovascular disease 10 months ago.
“Two days after I saw the notification, I decided to open the email and couldn’t believe what I was reading. My dad’s love for my mom IS definitely immeasurable,” Aly wrote.
Bing revealed that he planned out everything before inevitably dying. Aly being the only child had to carry out his plans as revealed in the email.
“I am sending this to you in the off chance that I’m not in my right mind or worse, gone. I hope not,” her dad wrote.

Bing had already paid a florist to deliver flowers to his wife on her birthday, Valentine’s Day, and upcoming anniversaries.
Aly was instructed to pick out decorations knowing her mother loved taking photos.
Part of the email stated that Aly was to reserve a table in a restaurant for the three of them on their anniversary.
“Hopefully I’ll be able to drive already this time next year. Otherwise, you will so PRACTICE,” he told Aly.
“The email also contained a letter that he wrote for my mom which had all the words she needed to hear from him to be okay,” Aly shared.

“He literally thought of everything to make his great love feel all his love. They were supposed to celebrate their 25th silver wedding anniversary together today but God had other plans,” she added.
Bing died two days before Aly’s birthday and two days after his wife’s birthday.
Aly, along with others, set up the surprise at 11 p.m. and finished at almost 6 a.m, just in time for her mom to wake up.

“As soon as she saw the flowers, she made a very faint smile then started crying,” said Aly.
“Pink and white roses talaga kasi favorite niya because white roses are very significant in how their relationship started and how they ended up together, so she just knew that they were from my dad.”

Bing was chosen by Aly’s mother over another suitor because she made it a rule that whoever gives her a white flower first wins her yes, and Bing did just that.
“Though I lack sleep, the joy I saw in my mom’s face made everything worth it. Of course my mom cried because she misses the love of her life but I could see how happy everything made her because she knew that everything was planned by my dad,” Aly said.
Aly realized how much her father loved her mom even though they aren’t together anymore, ‘physically’.

“Happy 25th silver wedding anniversary Mamu and Baba! I love you both forever and always,” Aly said.
