Here’s their Official Statement:

“It is with deep sadness that we, the grandchildren of Amalia Fuentes, are confirming that she had suffered an ischemic stroke on Oct. 9, while on vacation in South Korea.

She was discovered by her friend in her hotel room and was immediately rushed to a hospital in Seoul where she was placed in an intensive care unit.

After a few weeks when she was finally stabilized, her Korean doctors allowed her to travel back to the Philippines.

Upon her return on Oct. 27, from the tarmac she was brought straight to the hospital. We were informed by her doctors that she hopefully can be discharged within two weeks.

She will continue her recuperation at home and will be undergoing extensive therapy soon after.

We, her grandchildren, and the rest of the Muhlach family, appeal to her friends , fans and the general public for prayers for her immediate and full recovery.

We love and respect her deeply.
Alyanna, Alfonso, and Alissa Martinez”
