I am the 8th child of Jesus L Tiongco... my father was in the US Navy and when he retired, he left the US to raised and care for his 9 children in his homeland of the Phillipines. My father chose to leave first with the 7 eldest children, and our Mother was suppose to follow a few months later with the remaining two children which were my brother Ernesto and i... i was two at the time and my brother one... over 45 years later, is when i discovered who my biological father was and was shocked to know that i had 7 siblings... so the past 3 years has been very exciting, painful, but all in all a huge blessing to know my family and who i am.....
