NEARLY a month since suffering a heart attack, Basilan Bishop Leo Dalmao is now on his way to recovery at a care facility in Metro Manila that a religious congregation runs.

In a CBCP News report, Cubao Bishop Elias Ayuban Jr. said Dalmao is already recovering after he was discharged from the hospital.

“He is already recovering, it’s really a miracle,” Ayuban was quoted by the official news agency of the Catholic Bishops Conference of the Philippines (CBCP).

Dalmao suffered a heart attack while celebrating the Christmas Eve Mass at the Sta. Isabel de Portugal Cathedral in Isabela City. He was transported by sea ambulance to a hospital in Zamboanga City, where he underwent an angiogram and angioplasty.

Dalmao was subsequently airlifted to Metro Manila on December 27, where he had heart surgery.

Ayuban gave an update on the condition of Dalmao during the three-day bishop’s seminar the CBCP is conducting in Santa Rosa, Laguna.
