Philippines' comedy King Dolphy is currently in critical condition and valiantly fighting for his life at the Makati Medical Center.
Dophy's son, Eric Quizon, earlier told TV Patrol anchor Korina Sanchez that his "father has been suffering from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), which hinders the flow of air to the lungs. The condition is generally permanent and may be progressive over time."
Dolphy was rushed to the hospital on June 9 due to pneumonia.
MalacaƱang also issued a statement encouraging the public to pray for the veteran actor.
"We are united in our intentions for our revered icon of the Philippine entertainment industry. The President's thoughts are with Mr. Quizon and his loved ones in these trying times."
Many are surely wishing for his recovery. Love and prayers to Dolphy.
