He also thanked the doctors and nurses who also took good care of him.
“We would like to express our gratitude to his doctors for their expertise and care.
We would like to thank everyone who prayed with us and supported us through this harrowing experience,” he said.
Erap returned to the intensive care unit (ICU) due to a “bacterial lung infection” last April 16.
