Most people hate dad jokes, and here’s Y 🤣

Yeah, that’s it. Classic.

It’s the kind of joke our fathers suddenly drop when everything is quiet or when you’re already tired from the day. We don’t even laugh most of the time. We just look at them like, “Pa, please.” But somehow, they still keep going.

And the funny thing is, those corny humor is their way of showing love. Not loud. Not overly expressive. Just small attempts to get a reaction from us, to see us smile even for a split second.

We act annoyed, of course. That’s usually how it goes. But deep down, we know we’re lucky. Our fathers may not always say it directly, but we see it in their long work days, their quiet sacrifices, the way they show up no matter what. They don’t always express their love, but they show it in a steady and quiet way.

This Father’s Day, maybe it is not just about posting greetings. Maybe it is also a good time to think about something we usually don’t talk about: our dad’s health. While our dads are strong, hardworking, and “kaya ko ito” people, they still are human; and oftentimes they ignore what their body is already trying to tell them.

According to the , some of the most common cancers among Filipino men affect the lungs, liver, colon, rectum, prostate, stomach, and blood. Which is why early check ups matter more than we think, especially for our fathers who are not getting any younger.

The good news? Maxicare Clinics offer PRIMA Screen e-vouchers as convenient ways to get comprehensive health screenings designed to fit anyone’s needs at every life stage. This makes it easier to keep your father’s health in check at an accessible cost, with three variants to choose from: PRIMA Screen Core, PRIMA Screen Vital, PRIMA Screen Total.
