On Sunday, October 29, theater actor and comedian Joey Paras passed away following many heart attacks.
Zciara Fabian told ABS-CBN News that her uncle had passed away and that Paras had suffered two heart attacks earlier on Sunday before being sent to the hospital closest to the comedian’s home in Molino, Bacoor, Cavite.
Fabian stated that he was spared those attacks because of her uncle’s pacemaker.
“Ang kasama niya po sa bahay ‘yung kasambahay niyang bago, ‘yung kasa-kasama niya. Ang nangyari daw po, inatake ng dalawang beses nung umaga. Pero dahil may device po siya sa dibdib niya, ‘yun po yung pumipigil ng atake niya,” said Fabian.
“Parang nag-okay pa po siya after nung dalawang atake niya, based po ito sa kwento nung kasama niya sa bahay. Tapos nung hapon, kumain pa raw po, saka natulog. Nung natulog, hindi na raw po magising nung kasama. Kaya kinontok na po nung kasama niya sa bahay ‘yung tita ko at mama ko.”
She added her uncle still had a weak heartbeat when they brought him to the hospital.
According to Fabian, most of Paras’ savings had already been used for his hospitalizations and maintenance medications. Just to make ends meet and pay for the medical bills, the TV and film actor-host would do sideline writing jobs since he can no longer physically work in front of the camera.
