Kris Aquino’s life is an open book to the public, but her intense battle with illness is one of the biggest challenges she has ever faced. In the midst of her illness, she was forced to fly to America to undergo specialized treatment—a decision that was not easy but necessary to preserve her life.
After months of weakening and continuing complications with her health, Kris Aquino finally flew to the United States to undergo treatment. This decision was not easy, especially since she would be leaving her family and loved ones in the Philippines. However, she knew that this was the only way to maintain her strength and live longer for her children.
In her first updates, Kris showed how serious her condition was—from her gradual weight loss to the series of tests she had to undergo. This was not a simple treatment, but an intense healing process that included intense pain, sacrifice, and emotional trials.
Upon arriving in America, Kris underwent thorough medical tests to determine the true state of her health. In her statements, she confirmed that she has *multiple autoimmune diseases*, including *Chronic Spontaneous Urticaria*, *Eosinophilic Granulomatosis with Polyangiitis (EGPA)*, and other complications.
Her doctors said that her condition is rare and requires specialized treatment that is not easily available in any country. This is a challenge because not every hospital or specialist has the ability to treat this type of disease.
One of the first steps in her treatment was *immunosuppressive therapy*, a type of treatment that weakens her immune system to prevent her own body from attacking its own organs more severely.
In addition, she also underwent *chemotherapy-like treatments*, which caused severe weakness and various side effects. Despite this, Kris showed her strong determination to fight, even if it meant constant sacrifice.
Despite her fight, she is not alone. Her children, especially Bimby, who has been her strong support during this time.
Her close friends and several showbiz personalities have also continued to support her, praying for her speedy recovery. Despite her physical weakness, her spirit has not diminished, proving that she will not let this fight defeat her.
Currently, Kris is still undergoing treatment in America. Even though there are difficult days, she is not giving up. According to her, she does not know when she will be able to return to the Philippines, but one thing is certain—she will not do so until she is strong enough.
In her last update, she said that she is experiencing gradual improvement, but her recovery is still far away. Her fight is a tough test, but with every step she takes, one thing is certain—she will not let it end without her fighting for her life.
The question now is: Will Kris Aquino ever return to the industry she loves? Or is this the last phase of her public life?
