Kris umaming ‘alone and lonely’
Naglabas ng bagong health update si Kris Aquino sa Instagram nitong November 10.
Ibinalita niya na sumailalim siya sa isang medical procedure sa Makati Medical Center.
Kalakip ng post ni Kris ang larawan niya habang sumasailalim sa medical procedure.
“Exactly 2 weeks ago, i had an Ultrasound guided PICC LINE INSERTION, the minimally invasive surgery was done in Makati Medical Center. I would like to thank everyone in MMC for their genuine concern for my safety & wellbeing while confined- from those in the OR, all the doctors & residents who were monitoring me, the nurses in the 9th floor, and the security team- MARAMING SALAMAT sa INYO!” ang simula ni Kris.
Kasunod nito ay kinumpirma niya na mula sa lima, ngayon ay anim na ang kanyang autoimmune condition.
Nagbiro pa si Kris at inihalintulad pa ito sa Pop Mart Care Bears na anim ang laman.
She also revealed kung ano ang kanyang 6th autoimmune disease, which is Rheumatoid Arthritis.
“I always try my best to highlight the positive because having 6 autoimmune conditions is depressing (hindi po ako nagkamali, in my last update i had 5 diagnosed autoimmune disorders, but just like the Pop Mart Care Bears na 6 ang laman given to me by my new friends @rouge_and_orange #6 is the supremely punishing RHEUMATOID ARTHRITIS)…,” ani Kris.
She also mentioned the name of her boyfriend, Dr. Mike Padlan, na nasa larawan na kanyang ibinahagi at kasama sa mga doktor na narooon during the PICC line insertion na isinagawa sa kanya sa MMC.
“This picture was taken by my pain management doctor, @rainiertanalgo. In the picture you can clearly see my adopted younger sister immunodermatologist @drkatcee who is stressed with my ever growing list of medicinal and food allergies; partially seen was my excellent vascular surgeon Dr. James Illescas, not pictured is our family’s trusted anesthesiologist Dr. Jonnel Lim who crossed the ‘border’ (again thank you MMC for saying yes to our request) and clearly visible is surgeon Dr. Mike Padlan. (Pinangalanan ko na po sya),” ang paliwanag ni Kris sa larawan.
Inamin niya na sa hirap na pinagdadaanan ay may mga pagkakataon na tinatanong na niya ang sarili kung kaya pa niya.
“Kahit gaano katapang ako, there are moments especially pag nagsabay sabay my unexplainable allergies, my lupus (rashes, fever like heat in my entire body, migraine) and rheumatoid arthritis flares (the worst, stabbing/crushing deep bone pain in my knees, hips, ankles) plus my high blood pressure (170/116); i ask myself KAYA KO PA BA?” saad ni Kris.
Ipinagtapat din niya na she’s in isolation now and it’s lonely.
“During my hospitalization, my WBC dropped… i also had a bad allergic reaction to the last antibiotic i could still tolerate. What did that mean — wala na kong panlaban sa kahit anong viral or bacterial infection. I’m now in isolation. So many rules for family & friends na gusto akong dalawin. Yes, it’s lonely,” she said.
“What keeps me going? I REFUSE TO DISAPPOINT ALL THOSE PRAYING FOR ME. Ayokong maisip nyo na binalewala ko yung time & effort ninyo. Because your compassion has deeply touched my heart. Kaya #bawalsumuko #tuloyanglaban ,” pagtatapos ni Kris.
