Gil Aducal Morales – best known as the comedian Ate Gay – expressed his gratitude to God after the lump on his neck is almost gone, days after undergoing radiation therapy.
Morales gave another health update on his Facebook page on Monday, Oct. 6, while sharing a clip of himself showing off the spot on his neck where the cancerous lump had been.
‘Hello! Wala na akong bukol. Konting konti na lang (My lump is almost gone. Only a small part is left). Thank you, Lord. I love you po,’ he said in the clip.
In a separate post on Wednesday, Oct. 8, Morales showed a closer look at his neck, saying the progress had been obvious even if the radiation therapy lasted for four days thus far.
‘Morningggggggg selfie ko ngayong umaga . wala na akong makitang bukol. alam nyo bang 4day radiation lang yan at may 31 days pa ako. nakakagaling talaga Angpanalangin Dasal. lab u po,’ he wrote.
(This is my morning selfie today. I don’t see any lump. Did you know that this is the effect of a four-day radiation and I still have 31 days [to undergo radiation]? Prayers really work. I love You, God.)
Morales made headlines last September after he disclosed that he was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. It was revealed days later that his condition is called mucoepidermoid squamous cell carcinoma, a rare type of cancer caused by mucous-secreting cells.
