Lara Quigaman was rushed to the hospital due to a kidney infection.
Lara Quigaman posted on Instagram Stories about being rushed to the hospital due to a kidney problem.
She described how she and her entire family traveled on vacation to Cebu. She was exhausted and her back ached when they returned home, and with three needy children, she had a meltdown.
Following that, she had a fever and chills.
"Sobrang nag-enjoy kami sa Cebu, pero napagod din pala ako. Pag-uwi sa bahay, naramdaman ko ang sobrang pagod. Pati likod ko sobrang sakit. May 3 bata pang sobrang clingy at medyo 'di ko na kinaya. I had a meltdown. Naiyak ako at sabi ko sa sarili ko, gusto ko lang muna mag-isa. Magpahinga. Gusto ko ng tahimik... Maya-maya, nilagnat na ako, nag-chills," she said.
Lara was brought to the hospital after two days of high fever and chills, and she was isolated until she received a negative COVID-19 test result.
She added, "I felt guilty for wanting to rest. I got what I wished for, but it was horrible, I was in pain and shivering, and alone," she said. "But God knew I needed to rest. He reminded me that my children will survive without me. That I also need to take care of me."
"I spent 3 nights in the hospital. The first 2 nights were horrible because I still had a high fever, pain, and chills, but the last night---I think tulo laway tulog na ako," Lara stated.
Lara captioned a selfie of herself in a hospital bed, "Nakapag-selfie na ako dito kasi pinayagan na ako umuwi ng doctor. Acute pyelonephritis. I was given antibiotics via IV. Now getting better. Thank You, Jesus!
She shared photographs of her kids napping in her next Story, along with the caption, "Back home. Balik siksik na naman sila... Okay na ako. Will remember to rest and take it easy. And to ask for and accept HELP."
She thanked her family and friends for their prayers for her quick recovery. She also encouraged her fans to "rest when you need to."
Lara was in Cebu with her family to mark her 9th wedding anniversary and Marco Alcaraz's 41st birthday.
