Gardo Versoza discharged from hospital after heart attack; set to undergo angioplasty

Clipboard

Seasoned actor Gardo Versoza has been discharged from the hospital earlier this week after suffering from a heart attack. His wife, Ivy Vicencio, confirmed the news. 

The actor is set to undergo an angioplasty procedure as well in two months.





Ivy recalled in an interview with ABS-CBN News how they found out that Gardo was having a heart attack. She admitted that the signs were “unusual” so they didn’t know he was already suffering a heart attack. 

"Kasi ang masakit sa kanya yung likod, back pain at batok at ulo. So hindi talaga namin iniisip na inaatake na siya. After niyang sumakit ulo, nagsuka siya ng dalawang beses. After niya magsuka nagla-lock na 'yung jaw niya, so 'yun 8 PM [dinala ko na siya sa ospital],” she recalled.

They quickly went to the hospital wherein the tests confirmed that the TV actor indeed suffered a heart attack. Gardo’s wife added that it was fortunate that they arrived on time at the hospital as the life-threatening illness could have taken his life away had it not been prevented. 

"After nun nakita sa ECG confirmed na heart attack nga siya. 'Yung isang ugat ginawa ay angioplasty. 'Yung ginawa nila ay kritikal na kumbaga kung nahuli kami ng oras pwedeng nawala na siya. Kaya mabilis ang pangyayari sa hospital na talagang wala silang sinayang na oras," she added.

Meanwhile, the operation was a success as doctors gave a go signal for Gardo to be discharged from the hospital. However, he will be returning after two months for another angioplasty procedure which couldn’t be done at the time.

Gardo and Ivy showed their heartfelt gratitude on their respective Instagram accounts for the prayers and messages they have received during these trying times. 

“Maraming Maraming Maraming Salamat po sa lahat ng nag dasal at nag alala kay Gardo "Cupcake" Versoza… Medyo ok na po sya at pinayagan na muna ng mga doctors nya na maka uwi. After 2 months mag undergo po sya ulit ng isa pang Angioplasty. Hindi naisabay nung una dahil may Heart Attack na nangyayari,” she wrote. 

Gardo is part of Unbreak My Heart, the latest collaboration series of ABS-CBN and GMA which stars Jodi Sta. Maria, Joshua Garcia, Richard Yap, and Gabbi Garcia.
