Megastar Sharon Cuneta was living her dream last Saturday night as she performed with one of her idols Odette Quesada.

But little does everyone know that behind her amazing performance with the multi-awarded singer, Sharon was actually sustaining a minor injury prior to the show.

This is what Sharon revealed in a two-part Instagram post yesterday evening.

According to the Megastar, she acquired a top layer fracture in the head because she slipped in the shower in preparation for the concert.

“I had just started taking a shower in preparation for the show's soundcheck Saturday afternoon, ni wala pang sabon at kaka-on ko pa lang ng shower.

“I don't know how it happened, but it was probably some soap residue that suddenly made me slip, and sa pagdulas at paupo ko, tumama ang likod ng ulo ko sa edge ng marble na parang seat sa loob ng shower na nakadikit sa wall at kung saan nakapatong lahat ng shower products namin. It really hurt.”

Luckily, her husband Kiko Pangilinan was there to help her get up.

“I screamed, 'Daddy!' at salamat sa Diyos nasa room si Kiko at tumakbo sya at nagpanic nung nakita niya ako sa floor ng shower at nakahawak sa likod ng ulo ko.”

Kiko then suggested that they go to the hospital so they could have Sharon's head checked, but the singer persisted to go on with the show.

“I insisted on going to Odette's show. I said while Kiko held me up na mahigpit ang kapit ko sa kanya na nanginginig pa, 'I am not letting the devil take away any more joy from me. I am singing for Odette. Mamaya na ospital!'”

And so she did.

I thank God Almighty that I was able to perform with the one and only Odette Quesada, who gave me the gift of “To Love Again” when I was 17 (and she was 18 when she wrote it!). Eto po ang nangyari kasi: I had just started taking a shower in preparation for the show's soundcheck Sat. afternoon, ni wala pang sabon at kaka-on ko pa lang ng shower. I don't know how it happened, but it was probably some soap residue that suddenly made me slip, and sa pagdulas at paupo ko, tumama ang likod ng ulo ko sa edge ng marble na parang seat sa loob ng shower na nakadikit sa wall at kung saan nakapatong lahat ng shower products namin. It really hurt. I screamed “Daddy!” at salamat sa Diyos nasa room si Kiko at tumakbo sya at nagpanic nung nakita nya ako sa floor ng shower at nakahawak sa likod ng ulo ko. To cut this short, sabi ko mula nung pumasok ang 2020 inaatake na ako ng demonyo. Halos araw-araw may nangyayari. Sa mata kong nananahimik na pinost ko dito, at isang til now di ako makapaniwalang naloko ako ng 2 pinagtitiwalaan at minahal ko na kung kanino pati buhay ko pinagkatiwala ko. No more details. Sabihin na lang natin na not just one time big time. Di ko alam how to move on from this kasi pinakamasakit na masira ang tiwala sa mga mahal mo. Tapos, the shower incident. I insisted on going to Odette's show. I said while Kiko held me up na mahigpit ang kapit ko sa kanya na nanginginig pa, “I am not letting the devil take away any more joy from me. I am singing for Odette. Mamaya na ospital!” So I arrived at the venue holding an ice bag to my head, and cried like a baby in the dressing room, not knowing talaga kung kakayanin ko. THEN WE ALL PRAYED. And you know about how much faith I have in God. Plus we had a medic on standby and thank God walang break ang ulo ko. I did a soundcheck and it was good. But they had to give me a stool dahil binabantayan ang hilo ko at ayaw ako patulugin! Sinundo ako ni Kiko at Kakie and I said four songs lang I can do this! And so I did. No one had a clue! We went straight to St. Luke's BGC for a CT Scan. I have a top layer FRACTURE - WAIT DON'T PANIC - but the (see next post pls.)

Sharon sang four songs with Odette that night. Afterwards, Sharon together with Kiko and their daughter Frankie went straight to St. Luke's BGC for a CT Scan.

She then revealed that she has a top layer fracture that, thankfully, can heal itself.

“I am being closely monitored and Kiko has been texting my doc every hour almost since we got home from my CT Scan. I am on ice packs and pain killers and we are watching out for nausea, dizziness, and blurred vision.”

The Megastar then pleaded to her fans to continually pray for her fast recovery so she can perform on stage soon.

“Please pray for me. I am so much better now but not out of the woods yet. Seeing my doctor day after tomorrow. PLEASE, Dearest Sharonians and family and loved ones - pray for me. I do try to do my work for God's glory, always. And if all I can say to the audience is “GOD BLESS YOU,” that is a most sincere prayer from my heart.

“Kahit naka wheelchair pa basta makakakanta magcoconcert ako! I love you all.”

(Pls read previous post muna before this.) >> that can heal itself. Except that I am being closely monitored and Kiko has been texting my doc every hour almost since we got home from my CT Scan. I am on ice packs and pain killers and we are watching out for nausea, dizziness and blurred vision. Thank God only a bit of dizziness, but TERRIBLE HEADACHES that have been traveling all around my head. Please pray for me. I am so much better now but not out of the woods yet. Seeing my doctor day after tomorrow. PLEASE, Dearest Sharonians and family and loved ones - pray for me. I do try to do my work for God's glory always. And if all I can say to the audience is “GOD BLESS YOU,” that is a most sincere prayer from my heart. The devil can do cartwheels until it's winter in hell but nope - I AM NOT LETTING HIM WIN. I will do my God's work as long as i can. Kahit nakawheelchair pa basta makakakanta magcoconcert ako! I love you all. Big congrats to Odette and Noel, Rowell, MD Jason and the band and all involved in production. Wonderful show. I love you, Odette! Forever grateful to you. Goodnight everyone! GOD BLESS YOU.
