Maxene Magalona, daughter of Master rapper Francis “Kiko” Magalona gave an update on the condition of her dad who was recently diagnosed with leukemia.

According to Maxene, her dad is doing ok in the hospital receiving treatment. She even showed an MMS picture of her dad that was taken just minutes before. Francis didn’t look like he was sick on the picture contrary to rumors that he is already bald and thin. “Okey naman siya. He’s undergoing treatment. We’re awaiting yung orders ng doctor kung kailan siya puwedeng ma-release and to continue yung recovery at home.” said Maxene. “So, naghihintay na lang talaga kami. Pero the doctors were surprised on how well he’s responding with the treatment. Very strong siya talaga. Kahit nawawalan siya ng appetite to eat, he still forces himself to eat because he knows that his body needs it,” she added.
