The Market Monitor Minding the Nation's Business
People who love Queen of All Media Kris Aquino would always find time to pay her a visit no matter the distance during these trying times of her battle with the worst disease she has ever known in her life.
Friend, colleague and ex-co-host on TV—as Kris’ sidekick in the defunct “Kris TV”—Darla Sauler recently came and saw Kris in a US hospital to express her support and spiritual boosting to the ailing actress.
Darla, who is vacationing in the US, had never left any stone unturned until she finally saw her friend in sickbed.
In her Instagram post, Sauler said that Kris was a picture-perfect of a kind and loving member of her family who devotes her time in any situation just to be with her kith and kin.
“You always make time for the family. Happy to visit and catch up with you and the kids while you’re in the US, Krisy. Continuously praying for your well-being. Love, love, love you, Bimb and Kuya (a term of endearment to an elder brother or an older man by affinity) always,” noted Darla in her IG.
After Kris was diagnosed in Singapore with an autoimmune disease that complicates many of her body organs, she decided to go to the US for advanced treatment of her illness.
It was a happy reunion between Aquino and Darla who were together in a lot of public and private functions of the former presidential daughter and ex-presidential sister.
Meanwhile, even if Kris is in a delicate state of health, she is able to reminisce and memorize unforgettable moments with her father, the late opposition senator and martyr Benigno Aquino, Jr.
On the observance of the 90th birth celebration of Ninoy, his daughter penned throwback notes on the occasion.
Kris is truly proud of Ninoy, the hero as she affixed the hashtag #hero to her social media notes.
“How could the person mom would always say was your female version possibly forget? In heaven you celebrated your 90th birthday,” the actress proudly declared.
Yet, Krissy also threw some witty lines about her health crisis being equated with Ninoy who also suffered some identical health issues as her.
“Dad, just a rhetorical question—bakit pati yung cardiovascular problems mo minana ko (why even your cardiovascular problems I genetically acquired?).
“My genetic testing cleared me for all types of cancer (thank you God) but 2 of my life threatening autoimmune issues have an effect on blood flow, heart, and lung function…bimb at 15, already has high cholesterol issues (we were both saying kuya is really the favourite of his Lola Cory & tito Noy because maganda ang blood panel nya—his is good),” she posted in her socmed spaces.
