Admitting that she currently has a life-threating condition already, Queen of All Media Kris Aquino faced the rumors about her demise and promised to continue to fight for her life.
In an eight-minute Instagram video, Kris gave updates on her current situation and clarified some fake news that has been spreading in different social media platforms.
“‘Yong chismis na na-confine ako, na nasa ICU, na nag-aagaw buhay, masyado kayong advance,” she said. To make it to clear to everyone, she said she’s alive and “going to fight to stay alive.”
In the caption of the video she uploaded, the well-known actress disclosed finding out last April that her illness is already life-threatening and she now has three confirmed autoimmune conditions: chronic spontaneous urticaria, autoimmune thyroiditis, and vasculitis.
“To be very specific–late-stage 3 of Churg Strauss Syndrome now also known as EGPA,” she added. “Lahat ng paraan sinusubukan for me to get to Houston soonest. ‘Yong gamot that, God willing, can help save me doesn’t have FDA approval here or in Singapore and isasabay na po mag-infuse ng chemotherapy as my immunosuppressant. Why? Allergic po ako sa lahat ng steroids.”
The actress-host also revealed that she will leave the country in few days. Before ending her post, she left a message for those who were throwing hatred on her, “Hindi n’yo po ako kailangan gustuhin para magpakatao…please don’t punish Kuya and Bimb for being my sons.”
Kris’ flight for treatment abroad postponed
Just two weeks ago, Kris shared that her scheduled flight abroad for her treatment was postponed because of high blood pressure.
“Gel, ikaw kasi, last night sinabi mo na ‘sana hindi ka pa matuloy, Ate…’ I said, ‘Gel please don’t be mean, you know kailangan na talaga’ then you said: ‘sorry Ate, selfish ako, ‘di pa ko ready mag-let go,” Kris narrated.
