200: Even My Unconditional Love Comes with Limitations — by Jen

Have you come to accept that your unconditional love has limits? And if so, how do you love anyway?

For our 200th episode, Jen writes to her senior dog, Stuggi, after a late-night shriek jolts her awake. For the next 48 hours, she grapples with how to care for him as he paces around, night and day, afraid to lie down without hurting himself.

If you’re a dog parent who loves your fur baby with all your heart, this letter is for you.


Letter 200 is part of The Filipino American Woman Project’s letters series, inspired by real conversations…

…and this concludes our Summer Edition! Thanks for listening! ☀️

As a reminder: I will be taking a break from publishing letters for Filipino American History Month (FAHM) to engage with YOU! 💙❤️💛


Filipino American History Month will be dedicated to curating FAHM-related content from our community.

So if you have any recommendations (e.g., books, articles, your favorite influencers addressing FAHM, events, etc.), simply REPLY to any of our newsletters!

And if you’re not yet a subscriber, subscribe for FREE now! 💌

P.S. Be sure to save tfawletters@substack.com as a trusted contact.

P.S.S. Depending on the number of replies, please note that I may not reply to everyone’s messages (thank you in advance for respecting my boundaries — mainly a one-woman band over here 🙋🏻‍♀️). Pay attention to our newsletters in October to see if your recommendation made it in!


Our final letters for 2026 will resume for the Holiday Edition in November. 🎁


Here’s a recap of our Summer Edition letters:
