Isabel Granada and her father's long lost friend

Episode on June 13, 2009
Saturday, 4:30 p.m.


As an engineer, Tatay Eduardo led a bountiful life. But his luck ran out when he retired as a seafarer. He was abandoned by his own family after being afflicted with a rare bone disease.

Alone and lonely, Tatay Eduardo tries to cheer himself up by reminiscing his past. His favorite memories include times spent with his best friend, Humberto Granada. The latter is the father of actress Isabel Granada.

Eduardo and Humberto were like brothers. When Humberto passed away, Eduardo no longer heard from his friend's family. He is content seeing his friend's daughter on television. But meeting her again would certainly lift his spirits.

Vicky Morales and her staff reunite Isabel and Eduardo in another heartwarming episode of Wish Ko Lang! on Saturday after Startalk on GMA 7.




Nasanay sa masaganang buhay ang dating engineer na si Tatay Eduardo. Lahat ng luho at kaginhawahan ay naranasan niya. Ngunit ngayon, inabandona na ng pamilya at may matindi pang sakit sa buto.

Labis na nalulumbay ang sisenta'y singko anyos na matanda sa kanyang kalagayan ngayon. Para malibang, sinasariwa na lang niya ang kaniyang masayang nakaraan.

Isa na rito ang samahan nila ng matalik na kaibigan na si Humberto Granada, ama ng artistang si Isabel Granada.

Itinuring niyang parang kapatid ang kaibigang si Humberto. Nang pumanaw ang kabarkada, wala na siyang balita sa mag-ina nito. Hiling ni Tatay Eduardo makitang muli ang anak ng kaibigan.

Matutupad kaya ang kahilingan ni Tatay Eduardo? Tutukan ang madamdaming pagtatagpo ni Isabel Granada at matalik na kaibigan ng ama sa Wish Ko lang! Sabado, 4:30 ng hapon sa GMA-7.
