Raquel grew up into difficult circumstances. She is the eldest among seven siblings, orphaned early by their father. Their mother single-handedly raised them. Dahil walang mataas na pinag-aralan ang kanilang ina, nangatulong siya, naglabada, at nagtinda ng mga kakanin. All the siblings helped their mother earn a living, juggling work with their studies.
