Angel's September 12 upload featured a photo of her father being taken into an ambulance. "It’s been a week of feeling helpless. Imagine having [COVID-19] at 94. Now imagine being blind in unfamiliar surroundings," she had written in the now-deleted post. "So many realizations during this pandemic. We all have our battles, but some definitely more than others. To the PWDs and everyone fighting their battles alone, kapit! This too shall pass."
Angel's celeb friends gave their messages of encouragement in the now-deleted post.
"Praying for you, Daddy!" said Dimples Romana, one of Angel's closest friends. "Dito lang kaming lahat, praying for you."
