NAGPALIWANAG si Iza Calzado tungkol sa naging comment niya sa isang post ni Lea Salonga sa Instagram bago pa man siya mag-positibo sa COVID-19.
Na-bash ang Kapamilya actress dahil dito hanggang sa aminin nga niya na meron siyang pneumonia hanggang sa tamaan na ng killer virus.
Nakasama si Iza sa listahan ng mga celebrities na binatikos ng ilang netizens at tinawag na walang puso para sa mahihirap.
Ito’y matapos nga niyang pusuan at ayunan ang quote card na ipinost ni Lea na nagsasabing, “What if…the virus is here to help us? To reset. To remember.”
“It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye.”
Reply ni Iza, “I agree with this and have been thinking about how the Covid situation is actually the Universe’s way of making the world a better place moving forward. Praying for the best.”
Ilang araw matapos makalabas ng ospital at gumaling sa COVID-19, nag-post ng mensahe si Iza sa Instagram para magpaliwanag sa lahat ng na-offend at nagalit sa kanya.
“Hello Everyone! It’s a brand new week and today I am grateful for my life. Most of you know what happened to me.
“Before I talk about it, I would like to address something. When I started getting sick, I made a comment on an IG post that was totally misconstrued.
“I understand how and why that happened and I am sorry if anyone was offended and felt bad about it,” simulang pahayag ng aktres.
“Please know that I would never intentionally say anything to hurt others nor celebrate anyone else’s suffering.
“I am a hopeful person and always try see the silver lining in every dark cloud. I am sad that you missed my heart but I also understand your sentiments,” aniya pa.
Kuwento pa ni Iza, noong binabanatan siya sa social media ay nagsimula na ang kanyang sakit.
“After 2 weeks of battling Covid 19, pneumonia and a nasty bacteria called Acinetobacter Baumannii, I am alive and for that I am truly grateful.
“I know that so many of you sent your love and support and I want to express my heartfelt gratitude to all of you.
“Please know that even if I didn’t get to read all the messages, I felt the love and good energy and that you helped me pull through one of the darkest moments of my life.
“Everything by God’s Grace, of course, but your prayers did so much for me. I hope in some way, I can pay it forward.
“I wish to thank all the frontliners especially my doctors and nurses in Asian Hospital for going above and beyond to make sure I live, breathe and have another shot at life.
“To Dr. Jorge Garcia, Kuya Joel and the family, much love and respect. Thank you.
“Thank you for the support from my ABSCBN family who always checked up on me and made sure that I was fine until the finish line. Salamat, Kapamilya!”
