February 12, 2009, We received an email from Joanne Santiago:
brods and sis,
Our sis janis and brods gian and princy had a vehicular accident last weekend, lets pray for their early, recovery.... tnx... mod353
This is the story from Bing Bunuan sister in law of Dr Bermie Alejandro
Princy and family ... Gian, Janice and pamangkin plus my sis-in-law Bermie and BF Gilbert went to Manaoag last feb 7 daw and on their way home ... an accident happened. Bale convoy daw sila ... Princy and family in one car, while others mentioned on the other car, driver nila si Gian. Medyo nawala lang daw sandali si Gian sa paningin ni Princy dahil may sumingit na bus between them. Princy just thought na nakasunod pa rin si Gian, however taka na lang daw sya coz super bagal na daw sya to wait for them pero wala pa rin sila, only to find out, may accident na pala. Nag turn turtle sila, tumama daw yung gitna ng roof sa isang tree, nahati at dun nauntog si Bermie. My poor sis-in-law died on-the-spot.
Dra. Berminda Alejandro was a senior radiology resident at Tondo MediCal Center, about to graduate this september, and planning to get married by December. 10 years anniv nila ng BF nya last feb 13, 1 day before her burial. How ironic.
I was able to talk to Gian and Princy who attended the burial last saturday. Ok na si Princy but si Gian, I could still see in him na di pa talaga sya fully recovered psychologically. The grieving family told him to undergo therapy ... which just shows na naiintindihan sya. Besides, its really an accident. Sino nga naman kasi ang magkakagustong mangyari yun.
Janice is still in Delo. (s/p closed reduction of her femoral fracture, shoulder dislocation, tarsal bone fractures, and other injuries from Leisly) wasnt able to drop by na coz we went home the following day.
Janis dear, get well soon, ok. Kaya mo yan... nakaya mo hirap sa medicus... yan pa kaya? Gian, I know what you feel but don't blame yourself ok. nangyari na din yan sa akin (total wreck din tho less traumatic) and up to now, may phobia pa rin ako... We really suggest you and Janis to undergo therapy para mas mabilis kayo maka recover.
Kaya, mga brods and sis... ingat lagi sa pagda drive...
NB: Just a little favor ... please help us pray for the soul Bermie.
Thank You.
Bing Bunuan
This is a tragic accident that no one wants to happen specially to our love ones. To the family of Dr. Bermie Alejandro, The MEDICUS family conveys our deepest sympathies to you, and rest assured that Bermie is in our prayers.
To our Brods, Princy and Gian and Sis Janice, Life goes on. Give your self time to grieve, time heals all wounds they say. Let your injuries heal, then move forward in life. Nothing that you do now will change anything that happen, perhaps Bermie would like you to continue with your life stronger as you overcome her loss.

Bermie Alejandro is a resident of ours at Tondo Medical Center. She is a model of humility, compassion and joyousness. In spite of the rigor of training and personal obligations to parent, siblings and patients, she has remained to be the same sweet and idealistic girl who first set foot in our hospital. Her untimely departure has left a gaping hole in our hearts which will take forever to heal.
She will be sorely missed by patients and co-workers alike.
We find comfort in the knowledge that she is now in the bosom of the Almighty where there will be no more pain and toil. In her brief stint here on Earth she has touched all those she had come in contact with. We were all touched by an angel. For this we can say that we were blessed.
