Kris Aquino has spoken up about her current health condition with talk show host Boy Abunda.
In yesterday’s episode of Fast Talk with Boy Abunda, Aquino revealed that her recent complete blood count (CBC) showed an alarming decrease in hemoglobin count.
“I fell to below 9. It is the first time na nag-8.7 ako. In other words, kung nasa Pilipinas ako, binibigyan na sana ako ng blood transfusion,” the 53-year-old Aquino said via Zoom call.
The actress expressed her gratitude to those who had been praying for her recovery.
“Kanina kasi may nag-deliver ng pagkain dito, I was asleep pero may dala sila na mga prayer booklet. Ang laki ng community dito sa LA, and I barely go out but when my sons go out, they [get recognized],” said Aquino.
“At wala akong na-encounter na hindi nagsabi sa mga anak ko, sa mga kapatid ko, sa mga taong alam na kaibigan ko sila, na pinagdarasal nila [ako] at sabi nila, ‘kailangan siyang gumaling kasi meron pa kaming hinihintay sa kanya. Gusto pa namin siyang mapanood,” she said further.
Aquino asserted her desire to continue fighting her battle with her illnesses and promised to do so for those that have supported her long journey.
“Kailangang lumaban, hindi ko ipapahiya ang sarili ko sa inyo dahil binigyan niyo ako ng pinakamagandang regalo. ‘Yung pagmamahal niyo at suporta niyo, at ‘yung pagdarasal ninyo. Kasi wala naman akong nagawa para sa inyo pero kayo, sobra ‘yung binibigay niyo sa akin na lakas ‘cause I know na you’re praying for me and that’s biggest gift anyone can give,” the actress said.
Aquino also expressed how much she missed her siblings and how grateful she was for her friends who have supported her, noting that she was visited by singer Dingdong Avanzado last week.
“Malalaman mo kung sino talaga ‘yung mga totoo mong kaibigan dahil gagawa at gagawa talaga sila ng paraan,” she said.
