Parokya ni Edgar visits guitarist Gab Chee Kee in the hospital: ‘Di talaga namin siya papabayaan’
“Walang iwanan sa Parokya band, sa Parokya Ni Edgar.”
The OPM legends once again showed their strong bond when they visited their guitarist Gab Chee Kee in the hospital before heading to a fundraising gig.
“Sobrang aliwalas nya tingnan!!!” Parokya wrote on Facebook.
“Nagpapalakas lang sya para maipag-patuloy nya yung chemotherapy nya, and tuluyan na syang gumaling,” they said.
“Mahaba-haba pa 'tong laban na 'to, pero pramis, kahit gaano pa kahaba yung laban ni Gab, di talaga namin sya papabayaan,” Parokya added.
Parokya also thanked everyone who has been helping Gab.
Last January, vocalist Chito Miranda revealed that Gab was hospitalized due to pneumonia, a complication brought on by his lymphoma.
Their friends in the industry have helped raise funds, including an Eraserheads-signed guitar that sold for P1.3 million. The polo used by the late Francis M in the “Bagsakan” music video is currently up for auction.
A fundraising gig titled Resbak Para Kay Gab, featuring top OPM artists, is also set for March 4.
Gab has recently been transferred to a regular room after spending weeks in intensive care and progressive care. —Nika Roque/KG, GMA Integrated News
