‘Kris also has many allergies to food, medicines, etc. She now weighs less than 90 pounds, added Ballsy.’
The latest news about Kris Aquino being diagnosed with two more autoimmune diseases has made her fans alarmed and sad.
Autoimmune, as defined by the Merriam-Webster dictionary, “relates to, or [is] caused by antibodies or T cells that attack molecules, cells, or tissues of the organism producing them.”
Kris’ eldest sister Ballsy Aquino-Cruz revealed that aside from the two previously diagnosed autoimmune diseases she had, chronic spontaneous urticaria and eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis, her doctors in the United States have discovered two more.
Kris also has many allergies to food, medicines, etc. She now weighs less than 90 pounds, added Ballsy.
Well, Kris has always been prayerful and we know many are offering messages of support and are praying for the “Queen of All Media.”
As we said in our previous column, we are looking forward to Kris’ return to the screen.
Knowing Kris, her comeback would be tremendously grand. Back with a vengeance.
Let’s offer a prayer that Kris gets back on her feet soon. Let’s pray for her sons, Josh and Bimby, too.
