Marjorie Barretto is asking for prayers after her father, 82-year-old Miguel Barretto fell ill last week during his birthday celebration.
“Right after the blowing of the candles on his cake, he took a nap and fell very ill. My siblings and I rushed him to the nearest hospital. I could say it was the scariest time for us all. After that day, it’s been a series of ambulance transfers, family meetings, nonstop praying, and big family gatherings at the ICU waiting area,” Marjorie wrote on her Instagram account.
Marjorie couldn’t help but be grateful for what their father has done for them.
“I’m just feeling sad today, realizing it’s been a week, and I guess we are all emotionally and physically tired, but our faith, hope and unity as a family is stronger than ever. May I kindly ask for more prayers for our Dad? That he gets better soon. And that God willing, we get to spend more birthdays with him,” Marjorie added.
Claudine Barretto also confirmed that their father was hospitalized last week.
Gretchen, on other hand, remains at odds with her parents.
