Actress and TV host Kris Aquino reveals she has Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT). For a woman whose life has been an open book—written in the bold ink of stardom and the delicate script of personal struggle. This latest chapter feels particularly poignant.
It isn’t just another medical update in a long list of autoimmune battles. It is a moment that reminds us of the fragile reality behind the “Queen of All Media” persona.
DVT is a frightening complication, especially for someone already juggling multiple autoimmune conditions. It’s a silent, internal threat that turns the simple act of rest into a period of high alert.
“It’s called deep vein thrombosis na maaring makamatay. Hindi ako pwedeng lumipad hanggang mawala sila because of the air pressure.
Although this is not our home, we’ve been here for six weeks. Pero finally in three days we will be allowed to go home. Meron lang akong kailangan gawin for myself para mas madalas niyo akong makikita, hindi ako hihingalin, and on its own kusang matatanggal.” shared Kris.
Kris also shared the she will soon be charged from the hospital is now looking for a place she can stay that comes with lap pools and others:
“I’m still in the hospital, hopefully discharged tomorrow… i feel like I’m still me, but i know myself better, i’ve learned which moments to treasure and that love and friendship need to be reciprocal if you want them to last. Walang perfect na relationship but if you are willing to live with and learn to laugh at each other’s quirks then you have a chance to go the distance.
And remember to fight fair, nobody should play the victim not if you truly love one another. Nobody is ever too busy to carve out a 10 minute text exchange or a 5 minute call to check on each other. My best girl friends and I always start our WhatsApp messages with “how are you”? For now my priority is my health.
Please help me, do you know of any indoor swimming pools in any physical rehab centers or hotels that offer health club memberships? Or are there any condo units, homes or townhomes for lease in Makati,Taguig,Mandaluyong,San Juan, or Pasig that have easy to cover with the big patio and garden umbrellas I’ve seen online- lap pools or shallow swimming pools; and are within 30 minutes inclusive of traffic from St Luke’s Global, MMC, Asian Hospital, Medical City, or Cardinal Santos?
This is my life’s new reality. But in order for me to continue being brave, i need to do slowly what i love until i am stronger. My goal is once a week sit down interviews with people who for me are interesting and with God’s blessing, weekly enjoyable treatment of products i really use. Because there’s a team doing my hair & makeup, i have a skeleton crew, a 2 cam setup shooting me and the closeups of the others as well as product shots and I’m excited to start sharing new home cooking recipes made simpler with all of you. Happy viewing.”
