Kris Aquino talks about taking care of Bimby as he recovers from cough and pneumonia

Kris Aquino took to Instagram to show how she's been taking care of her son Bimby, as he recovers from cough and pneumonia.

After staying at Willie's beach property amid the community quarantine, Kris and her sons Josh and Bimby are now staying at a spare room of their friend's house.

 

 

"I made the conscious decision to isolate ourselves. We found a friend and she kindly allowed us the use of their spare room, separate from their family’s area," she wrote.

"Nag magandang loob na si Willie. Nakakahiya kung may mahawa pa sa masamang ubo and pneumonia ni Bimb," Kris narrated.

But Kris said her prayers were answered. "Hindi nagka-fever si bimb. He took his 2nd dose of antibiotics, and okay ang appetite nya."

She said she's been awake for 24 hours worrying and taking care of Bimby.

"I’ve been awake 24 hours (all parents will understand me) nag-bantay ako to make sure nakatulog sya, no chills, and hindi hirap huminga," she said.

Kris said she decided to share it to remind everyone that that they will take often overlooked things like cough seriously. "'Wag dedmahin ang ubo — and let’s care enough about the health of others to not risk their health."

She said she has been strict about washing hands and disinfecting their gadgets so she and Josh won't get infected.

"Constant hand washing helps a lot. The three of us are always together but because I have been strict about washing hands and disinfecting our gadgets, so far okay kami ni kuya."

Kris also mentioned she saw Josh exchanging texts with his brother, former President Noynoy Aquino.

"Kuya told him Bimb was sick. Nakaka-touch because Kuya Josh told his Tito Noy: I miss you and I love you so much... I saw the reply: love you, Josh."

She said this is a reminder to everyone to "to tell everyone we care about how much they mean to us and how much we love them, whether we are near or far."
