Sam Cruz inatake ng matinding takot nang magka-COVID si Sunshine: Seeing her gone would crush me

MATINDING takot ang naramdaman ng tatlong anak ni Sunshine Cruz kay Cesar Montano nang magpositibo siya sa COVID-19 ilang linggo na ang nakararaan.

Ayon sa anak ng aktres na si Sam Cruz, na isa na ring singer ngayon, kinailangan talaga niyang paglabanan ang tinawag niyang “greatest fear”, kasama ang dalawa pa niyang mga kapatid.

Natanong si Sam tungkol sa naging experience nila noong tamaan nga ng killer virus ang ina sa nakaraang virtual mediacon ng ABS-CBN para sa pagpapakilala sa kanya bilang member ng teen group na Squad Plus.

“We got scared because she got this from work and we didn’t know how to react at first. Once we found out na nagka-COVID siya, we were all very sad about it and we just hoped for the best,” simulang pagbabahagi ng dalaga.

Agad naman daw nag-self-isolate si Sunshine para hindi mahawa ang mga anak. Halos tatlong linggo rin niyang hindi nakasama ang mga ito dahil talagang kinarir niya ang pagku-quarantine.

“To support her and show her our love during this horrible experience, we would text her, call her, FaceTime kahit we’re in the same house.

“We still showed love and support by texting her day and night and she would text us every night, ‘I miss you guys’ na kahit second day pa lang,” kuwento pa ni Sam.

Last April 16, nag-negative na ang COVID-19 test ni Sunshine at in fairness, talagang bumalik siya agad sa pagtatrabaho makalipas ang dalawang araw.

“We were really excited and we were so happy and thankful to God that she’s recovered na finally. And she’s finally back to work,” saad pa ni Sam.

Banggit pa ng baguhang singer, si Sunshine talaga ang kanilang “source of strength and motivation” kaya talagang nagdasal sila nang taimtim para sa paggaling ng aktres.

“She’s always there. Super supportive and loving lang po. Without them, my family, I wouldn’t know what to do without them because they’ve been there for me all the way.

“My mom is always there to support me and us three sisters lang po. My mom is super-duper strong and she’s raised us her whole life on her own as a single parent. So, seeing her gone would crush me. That is probably one of my greatest fears,” sabi pa ni Sam.

Samantala, mula nga sa original four members, The Gold Squad’s barkada is now getting bigger and bigger as it welcomes more squadmates who are ready to conquer showbiz with their talents via The Squad Plus.

Bukod nga kay Sam, pasok din sa Squad Plus sina Angela Ken, KD Estrada at Anji Salvacion na regular nang napapanood sa “ASAP Natin ‘To” bilang bahagi ng Kapamilya new breed of singers.
