The "Queen of All Media" recently sent shockwaves through social media after disclosing a terrifying experience during a medical operation. What was intended to be a routine PICC line procedure—a method used to deliver meds directly to a vein near the heart—turned into a life-or-death moment. Kris candidly shared that for a total of two minutes, she lost her ability to breathe. “I stopped breathing,” Kris revealed, explaining that her lungs had completely stopped functioning during the span of the procedure.
Fortunately, the quick intervention of her medical team, including her anesthesiologist and surgeons, saved her life. This incident is the latest in a series of health hurdles for Kris, who has been fighting 11 different autoimmune diseases. After spending two years in the United States seeking specialized treatment, she returned to the Philippines in late 2024 to continue her recovery. However, the journey has remained difficult, with her body often at its weakest even as she maintains a fighting spirit for the sake of her sons, Josh and Bimby.
