Kris Aquino at Bimby
Ngayong araw, August 10, ibinalita ni Kris na tuluy-tuloy pa rin ang kanyang pagpapagamot at pag-take ng iba’t ibang gamot para sa kanyang mga autoimmune disease.
Inalala din niya sa kanyang IG post ang mga naging kaganapan sa buhay ng yumaong parents na sina dating Sen. Ninoy Aquino at Former President Cory Aquino.
Nag-share ang award-winning TV host-actress sa IG ng mga litrato nila ng kanyang anak na si Bimby at ang ilang treatment na pinagdaanan niya nitong mga nagdaang linggo.
“I chose the midpoint between my mom’s 14th death anniversary and my dad’s upcoming 40th death anniversary to THANK ALL OF YOU who continue to PRAY for my recovery,” ang simulang pahayag ni Kris sa kanyang caption.

“My dad immediately died after being shot while descending the stairs to the tarmac of what was then Manila International Airport, 21 August 1983. My Mom died of Stage 4 colon Cancer on 1 August 2009.
“Upon initial diagnosis our mom was given 3 months BUT she fought hard, knowing her 5 kids weren’t ready.
“Our Mom underwent all the most painful treatments and God granted us 17 more months. It’s been 17 months since my Churg Strauss/EGPA diagnosis,” aniya pa.
Kasunod nito, inisa-isa niya ang mga iniinom na gamot na talagang tinitiis daw niya para lang umayos ang kanyang pakiramdam.
“Dr. Malika Gupta gave me my 2nd dose of a biological injectable (unfortunately not available in the Philippines) to help lower my very high IgE (please google, BORING sa haba kung i-define ko)…
“She calls me a ‘bad-ass’ because kinakaya ko even though malapot at mahapdi yung ini-inject at malalim kailangan ibaon yung prefilled high tech syringe.
“Yes, matapang na ko sa halos lahat ng kailangan pagdaananan at mataas ang pain tolerance ko. It’s the AFTERMATH, 72 hours feeling kagaya nu’ng bigat after a Covid vaccine but x3.
“Yes, parang 3X akong na Pfizer or Moderna. This will be every other week, optimistically for me to reach ‘remission’ over the next 10 to 12 months,” pagbabahagi pa ni Kris.
“Every other Tuesday, it’s both my biological injectable PLUS methotrexate (my chemotherapy medication taken 1x/week, being used as an immunosuppressant to help me reach remission for 3 of my autoimmune conditions),” sabi pa niya.
Todo pasalamat naman si Kris sa lahat ng mga taong patuloy na nagdarasal para sa kanyang paggaling, pero ipinagdiinan niya na hindi na raw nagagamot ang autoimmune disorders.
“Thank you because our prayers are being answered- my last blood panel showed improvement- it’s slow progress, i have a long way to go…
“It’s likely that after a few months another medication will be introduced to my body by UCLA’s Dr Belperio- BUT I AM, against all odds (because of all my limitations with medicinal options), FINALLY, ON THE CORRECT PATH TO REMISSION and A BETTER QUALITY OF LIFE. Thank you to all. THANK YOU, GOD. #faith,” aniya pa.
Sa huli, may paglilinaw pa si Kris, “Clarification: autoimmune disorders have NO CURE, but life threatening damage on the patient’s organs can be prevented or managed if diagnosed early and/or given the proper treatment.”
