KINUMPIRMA ng dating model-actress-TV host na si Jaymee Joaquin na bumalik ang kanyang breast cancer.
Ibinalita ng dating host ng Games Uplate Live sa ABS-CBN na naka-base na ngayon sa California, USA, na muli siyang makikipaglaban sa cancer. Pero aniya, ang cancer niya ngayon ay “highly treatable and fairly manageable” kumpara sa breast cancer niya noong 2016.
Narito ang kabuuan ng kanyang Instagram post kamakailan tungkol sa bagong pagsubok na kanyang haharapin.
“Dear Social Media: I’ve been mustering the courage and finding the right words to say what I’m gonna say but I guess there’s no easy way to go about this so here goes… It’s confirmed. The cancer has come back.
“I don’t want to disclose specific info right now but one thing’s for sure… the recurrence was detected super early and medical team are still doing more tests to make sure all bases are covered.
“What I have is highly treatable with hormonal the-rapy and very manageable which means I can live many more years and there’s still a lot of HOPE to WIN over this. So no pity party pls!
“For now, all I ask is your continuous virtual support, healing prayers, well wishes and hopeful outlook as I embark on this uncertain yet awakening journey.
“I’ve also decided to lie low on social media for now because I choose to cope with everything in an organic way by truly living and appreciating life as it unfolds right before my very eyes and surround myself physically with people who love and care for me.
“I will come around when my cup is filled and I’m ready to inspire, uplift and empower once again. But for now, I need to take care of me and do a lot of praying and meditating.
“This is gonna be an epic battle. And with God’s grace, my medical team, my loved ones and your support, I’m a WIN the second time around. Let’s keep the faith and hope for the best. #jaymeewinsagain #letswinagain.”
Kung matatandaan, ibinandera rin ni Jaymee sa IG noong 2017 ang balitang gumaling na ang kanyang breast cancer matapos magpagamot sa UCSD Moores Cancer Center gamit pa ang hashtag ma #JaymeeWins na naging top trending topic pa sa social media.
