Former Film Development Council of the Philippines chairperson Liza Diño-Seguerra has revealed that her father, Martin Diño (Former Interior and Local Government Undersecretary), is battling stage 4 cancer.

On Instagram, Liza posted a before and after photo of her father, Martin, where the first photo showed slightly grown hair and the after picture shows a massive improvement in his recovery.

"From this to THIS, Liza started on her post. Marking the milestone on his father's health, she also revealed that it's been a year since their family had known about his father's diagnosis.

"So yeah, my dad is fighting the big C (stage 4), but we won't let it defeat us. I just realized it's been a year now since we found out he is sick, and while it's been difficult for our family, we are inspired by my papa's determination and fighting spirit," she added.

Although she didn't include what type of cancer her father has, Liza shared that she is still grateful for her time with her father despite facing challenges in the past.

"I'm looking at our photo and I just realized, when challenges like these come your way, you can't help but be grateful just for the fact that you get live another day; that being happy doesn't take that much because you recognize the value of the little things in life," Liza wrote.

At the end of her post, Liza expressed how happy and proud she is to see her father striving to improve. She even complimented how handsome her father is now with his growing hair.

"Im so happy to see you happy papa. Your hair! Omg, it’s back. You look great! Im so proud of you. And look at that smile. Never nawala ang charm . Jusko, kaya guapo pa rin!!! Ang tapang mo papa. Basta laban tayo. Nandito kami sa likod mo! Love you!" she said.
