Kris Aquino recently marked her eldest son Josh's 28th birthday posting a heartfelt message for him on social media.
In it, she reiterated how she misses and loves him so much.
"you’re where you want to be, surrounded by so many who love & care for you," she said.
Kris continued that she, herself, went to a mall recently, her fourth, because she wanted to be the one to choose Josh's new clothes.
"I’m so proud of you! Because of your discipline, jogging & swimming everyday, you’ve already lost more than 20 pounds," Kris said.
"Some people who love & miss you from here + 1 super special person will arrive in a few days to personally bring home all your gifts," she added.
"Kuya, i wish i could join them, but mama needs a year & a half minimum of treatment because my latest blood panel confirmed i have 5 autoimmune conditions. Mama will need to semi-isolate in 3 weeks because my immunity already went down. You promised me you’ll spend Christmas up to my birthday here. Please keep praying for all of us?," she ended.
"Happy Birthday to our super guapo Kuya, i love you so much & yes i’m taking care of myself (that’s how he ends all his messages by telling me he loves me so much & to “take care of yourself, mama”)"
Note that in a previous post, Kris revealed that Josh needed to go home as he gained almost 70 pounds while in the US.
In less than two months since Josh's return to the Philippines, he was able to lose 17 pounds.
"Kuya Josh who LOVES Tarlac & Makati. Congratulations on your weight loss. We miss you, but i'm so proud, you've already lost close to 20 lbs. and you're excited that bimb's going home- tanggap mo na that mama is for FaceTime & iMessage. Thank you kuya for encouraging everyone to PRAY," she said then.
Josh is Kris' son with actor Phillip Salvador.
