Nagkaruon nga tuloy ako ng anxiety attack dahil hindi ko akalain na at my age mahihiga ako sa hospital bed (I really didn’t expect that at my age, I’d end up being confined and getting sick. I even had an anxiety attack because I couldn’t believe that I’d be lying in a hospital bed at this point in my life),” she wrote.
“Medyo hindi ako talaga sanay sa hospital scenario kaya culture shock para sa akin ang mga nangyayari (I’m really not used to hospital settings, so everything that’s been happening has been a bit of a culture shock for me),” she added. “I feel like crying pero wala na akong magagawa (I can’t do anything about it.”
