Jaymee Joaquin: I can’t go yet… I have to live some more!

MULI na namang naospital ang dating aktres na si Jaymee Joaquin nitong nakaraang linggo.

“Last Sunday, my friend accompanied me to the ER. My cough is getting worse so my medical team advised me to go to be sure it’s nothing life threatening,” umpisa ni Jaymee.

Habang nakahiga raw ito sa kaniyang hospital bed at naghihintay ng mga test results na isinagawa sa kaniya, hindi maiwasang isipin ng dalaga ay paano kung ito na ang kaniyang “final moment”.

“I can’t go yet, Kel. I have to live some more!,” saad nito sa kaibigan na agad naman siyang sinang-ayunan.

Ilang taon na rin kasing nakikipaglaban ang dating aktes sa sakit nitong cancer.

Kaya habang inaantay ang mga tests results, napagawa ng mental list si Jaymee para ipaalala sa sarili kung bakit kailangan niyang lumaban.

“1) I have to witness my god children, niece and nephew grow up into wonderful adult humans that I know I’ll be proud of.

“2) I have to spend an awesome quality time with my family in the Philippines especially my senior citizen mom and cat.

“3) I still have to visit good friends everywhere in the world especially in different parts of America, in Europe and Dubai.

“4) I still have pending books to write and 2 of them will be turned into a badass screen play. I will pitch them to investors so it can be made into indie films that will bring global recognition to Filipino-American talents.

“5) I am not done inspiring the world with my survival story and sharing how humanity still exists bec if not for the kind people who’ve been helping me in this journey, I wouldn’t be here winning.

“6) I still haven’t ticked everything in my bucket list which includes a date with Brad Pitt, doing a collab with @jokoy, an apartment by the beach, getting another tattoo all over my torso… this list can just go on and on as I still have tons that I wanna do!

“7) Because I know in my heart that God’s plan for me isn’t done yet. I just need to trust and take it one baby step at a time,” pagbabahagi ni Jaymee.

Isang magandang balita naman ang hatid sa kaniya nf ER physician nang magbalik ito.

Ayon sa doktor, hindi naman kinakailangan magpa-admit ng dalaga sa hospital.

“No CoVid, no pulmonary embolism, no cardiac issues. THANK YOU GOD!

“But cancer is still progressing so I will switch drugs this week and hopefully, it does the trick of killing this stupid f**k*r!,”

“For now, let’s keep praying and winning. One breath at a time. Wooozaaaa! We’re staying alive, baby,” saad pa ng dating aktres.

Hindi madali ang pinagdaraanan ni Jaymee dahil bukod sa struggle nito physically, emotionally, at mentally, nangangailangan rin ito ng suportang pinansyal.

Maaari kang makatulong sa pamamagitan ng pagbili ng libro niyang pinamagatang “That Sh*t Called Cancer” na available online.
