According to the experts, brain aneurysm can be lethal and you can die at a very young age like what happened to singer Jovit Baldivino and singer-actress Isabel Granada. However, when treated at the right time, you can cheat death and this also happens to actor Julio Diaz.
‘Pilipinas Got Talent’ grand winner Jovit Baldivino died on Friday, December 9 at a very young age of 29, while Isabel Granada died of the same illness on November 4, 2017 at the age of 41.
Actor Julio Diaz was also among the victims of brain aneurysm disease.
Luckily for Lakay Julio, he has successfully fought the deadly disease through the help of his friends and co-actors and actresses in the entertainment industry.
In April 2016, Julio fell inside his home in Bulacan while experiencing the attacks of aneurysm which resulted in a severe headache.
His own family sent financial help to the actor as well as his friends in the entertainment industry, and the immediate family were able to generate Two Million Pesos (P2-M) for the actor’s needed operation.
LIFE AND DEATH
The doctors gave Julio 24 up to 48 hours to live during his operation. Fortunately, he survived the brain surgery and became conscious again after 12 days.
His friends also started a fund-raising campaign with fellow actor Richard Merck on May 1, 2016 and supported the actor’s medicines after the operation.
Julio Diaz was still lucky, his brain aneurysm was treated at the right timing and he cheated death in the process.
HIS ONLY HOPE
The actor’s only hope after he survives the tragic death from aneurysm was to go back to acting. God listens to his prayers and he again becomes active in showbiz.
Actor Julio Diaz was among the cast of a new movie ‘Pamasahe,” which had its launching on December 9, this year, with sexy star Azi Acosta. It has also started streaming on Vivamax on December 9, this year.
Julio plays the role of a ‘maniac’ ship captain who preys on young blood as his victims. His role in this film was very short but his versatility as a very promising actor was evident in this movie.
Indeed, the actor who cheats death from aneurysm’s deadly attacks, has still the brilliance of a veteran performer.
