She stated: “So, after a year, my back and leg started giving me problems again and since our hospitals are filled with COVID patients, I didn’t want to risk having my tests back home. My partner, Conrad decided to take me to see his brother, Dr. Art Onglao in California and he found a specialist for me. I also needed a check-up with my Obgyn and luckily, my nerve specialist is married to an Obgyn! What were the chances?!”

I’m happy though that Art found a machine for me that is so much less threatening than a regular MRI. And I’ve conditioned myself well enough to be braver and to keep smiling.”
