Hiniling ng OPM legend na si Rico Blanco sa kaniyang followers na ipagdasal ang paggaling ng kaniyang nakababatang kapatid na nakikipaglaban sa sakit na cancer.

Sa Instagram, nag-post ang singer ng mga larawan nila ng kaniyang kapatid.

“This beautiful boy you see with me is my younger brother, King,” saad ni Rico sa caption. “Only a year apart, we did everything together growing up, like best friends, or even twins. We shared so many adventures and fought so many battles alongside each other. I love him so very dearly."

Ayon kay Rico, ilang linggo pa lang ang nakararaan nang malaman nila ang tungkol sa sakit ni King na naging napakabilis umano.

“The signs all came too rapidly and seemingly out of nowhere, and by the time we got the full diagnosis, we were told he already has an advanced and very aggressive type of squamous cell carcinoma (sinus),” sabi pa ni Rico.

Idinagdag ng mang-aawit na sinimulan ngayong linggo ang gamutan kay King, “and we are praying all our efforts are not too late.

“We've also decided to share so we can humbly ask for your help—please pray for King’s strength and healing,” ayon kay Rico.

“Only heaven really knows what's best for my dear brother but we are keeping our hopes up. I cannot bear to imagine a world without him in it,” dagdag niya. "This is our toughest battle. Please, please help us win.” —FRJ, GMA Integrated News
