Iza Calzado recalls surviving COVID-19 after a year: “please fight to survive”

Actress Iza Calzado sent a reminder to her fans and followers as she looked back on recovering from the deadly COVID-19 virus.

In her Instagram account, Iza posted two photos of her. Iza can’t help but recall the day when she was discharged from the hospital exactly 1 year ago after her battle with the said virus. Iza also sent an inspirational message to her fans and followers as urged them to be grateful and to keep on fighting for survival.

“It was exactly a year ago when I was discharged from the hospital after 11 days of fighting this deadly virus we are now very much familiar with — Covid 19.

Now I am exactly where I wished I could be at that time and that is home. Perhaps it is why I can’t even complain about being home. I do know that i am privileged to even have a home and food on the table and i acknowledge that it is something not everyone has, but should.

However, if you are reading this, that means you are alive and that in itself is a gift. I know that so many of us are struggling, it could be physically, mentally, spiritually, financially maybe even all at the same time but what I want to say is please fight to survive. You have been given an opportunity to live when so many have lost this chance. I hope you find something to be grateful for no matter how small it is. May you also find something to live for and fight for just like I did when I was in the hospital and now that I am home.

Today, I am especially grateful for my frontliners who took such great care of me, for the love and prayers people sent my way at a time when I needed it most. I am very grateful for my loved ones who support me through difficult moments and remind me to see the silver lining in these situations. All of this would not be possible without God’s mercy and grace so I am most grateful for Him.

I don’t know what lies ahead. Yes, there is so much uncertainty and anxiety, but I recognize that every breath is a blessing and for as long as I have this gift I will continue to fight to survive and, yes, thrive. I pray you do too. Love and Light, always! 🤍” Iza wrote in the caption.
