Wil Dasovich shows support for fellow vlogger Emman Nimedez who's battling leukemia
Celebrity vlogger Wil Dasovich was one of the million supporters of YouTuber Emman Nimedez who revealed he has acute myeloid leukemia, in a 10-minute vlog posted on Sunday, May 17.
Upon announcing his disease, Emman looked back at his YouTube career with a rundown of some of his most treasured travels and activities in the past.
“Ito na siguro yung pinaka-malaking hamon na binigay sa 'kin ng nasa itaas. Mahaba-habang pakikipagtalo sa sarili bago ko tuluyang mai-post 'tong video na to.
“Pero sa napagtanto ko, kailangan n'yo rin talaga 'to malaman. Masyado nang malayo 'yung pinagsamahan natin para hindi ko kayo isama sa byahe na ito.
“Medyo malubak lang at matarik kumpara sa mga naunang byahe. Pero kapit lang. Makakatawid tayo,” Emman said.
Acute myeloid leukemia is a type of cancer that affects the body's bone marrow and blood cells.
With this, Wil has shown his support for Emman by posting the said announcement on his Instagram story captioned, “We are here for you brother.”
He also posted a photo of them together to even more uplift Emman's hopes amid the serious condition.
