In a recent Instagram story, the actress shared a screenshot of a news report from ABS-CBN about her return to acting after a three-year break. Sunshine used this opportunity to give her fans a clearer picture of her current health situation and what she can realistically manage on set.
"Thanks @abscbnnews. For the past three years, game pa rin naman ako pagdating sa mga events, billboard shoots, at endorsements," Sunshine shared, giving a shoutout to her continuous brand partnerships like Bench and Cathy Valencia Skin Clinic.
However, when it comes to heavy acting commitments, things are a bit different for her. Sunshine has been battling Myasthenia Gravis, a rare chronic condition that causes the voluntary muscles in the body to weaken and tire out very quickly.
