Former actor and Vice Governor of Cavite, Jolo Revilla's condition is deteriorating according to the family's spokesperson, Atty. Raymond Fortun.
 
Jolo is feverish and has contracted pneumonia. He also has trouble speaking and his stomach is expanding. He underwent a CT scan, but doctors found nothing out of the ordinary. 800 ccs of blood have also been siphoned out of his lungs. 
 
In an interview for Unang Balita, Jolo's manager, Lolit Solis elaborated on his condition. She says that Jolo coughed up blood, but the doctors assured them that that was normal for people who recently underwent surgery. However, the family 'panicked' when they noticed that Jolo's stomach is distended.

Jolo underwent a CT scan this morning, but doctors found nothing out of the ordinary. 
 
Lolit also revealed that Jolo's girlfriend, Jodi Sta. Maria was at his bedside, dressing his wounds. 
 
Yesterday, detained Sen. Bong Revilla Jr. was given permission by the Sandiganbayan to visit his son. Father and son apologized to each other during the very emotional five-hour visit. The senator will file another motion this morning to be able to visit Jolo again.

"Nung nakita niya 'yung tatay niya, umiyak siyang parang bata. 'Papa, sorry. Papa, sorry.' Ang ibig niyang sabihin, marami na ngang problema si Bong, parang nakadagdag pa 'yung nangyari kaya sorry siya ng sorry," Lolit tells Unang Balita
