Nagbigay ng update ang Queen of All Media na si Kris Aquino tungkol sa kasalukuyang estado ng kaniyang kalusugan.
Sa latest Instagram post ni Kris nitong Linggo, Oktubre 20, ikinuwento niya na sumailalim daw siya sa napakaraming pagsusuri.
“I had many tests done, including a PET SCAN. Yes, the test normally done to rule out cancer. In my case, after my exhausting chest CT scan as well as a scan below my eyes, (my nose and upper cheeks) to check on my breathing and sinus passages because of my constant headaches and never ending runny nose,” lahad ni Kris.
“It was devastating, after my PET Scan I was knocked out. Bagsak from my jetlag and sedation. I could sense something was wrong because my team of doctors didn't do their normal rounds,” aniya.
Nang sumunod namang araw, sinabihan daw si Kris ng kaniyang gastroenterologists na simulan na ang pagsailalim niya sa endoscopy at colonoscopy.
“The abdominal area, specifically my colon area lit up. I'm normally very BRAVE. But i broke down after my doctor left. My nurse and the SLMC nurse saw me and said they had never seen me so sad. My mom's oncologist had come in, and it felt surreal,” sabi niya.
Matatandaang na-diagnose ng colon cancer ang nanay niyang si dating Pangulong Corazon Aquino noong Marso 2008 bago tuluyang pumanaw. Bukod dito ay nagkaroon din daw ng ganitong sakit ang lola niyang si Lola Ma, ina ng nanay niya.
“I share the same blood type as my Lola Ma and my mom,” pagsisiwalat ni Kris. “Kuya Josh and Bimb also have the same blood type. Ang hirap to message my sisters with my news. All 5 of us share the same blood type as our mom.”
Kaya naman, laking pasasalamat ni Kris nang ibalita sa kaniya ng isa sa mga doktor niya na cancer-free na siya.
“THANK YOU,” saad ng Queen of All Media. “I know you've been praying but i didn't reveal what else specifically you were praying for. But God is listening even when we're not specific because He sees what's in our hearts.”
Maliban dito ay nabanggit din ni Kris na siya raw ay free na mula sa tubercolosis na nauna raw niyang katakutan.
“But there was numerous dots, possibly scarring, in my right lung most likely from my being a Covid Long Hauler from late June 2024 up to August 2024 and from my EGPA (my 3rd of 5 diagnosed autoimmune disorders),” pasubali niya.
Sa kabila ng magandang balita, hindi pa rin masasabing malayo na sa peligro ang kaniyang buhay dahil sa 6 na posibleng autoimmune disease niya
Ayon sa kaniya, “The scary part is that 3 of the diagnosed ones are life-threatening in other words- pwedeng ma-damage my vital organs or my blood vessels, specifically, my artery connecting my lungs to my heart to the extent na I can die immediately from a stroke or aneurysm or cardiac arrest.”
Ngunit tulad nga ng ipinangako niya sa sarili, hindi raw siya susuko. Tuloy ang laban!
