Ruby Rodriguez, inamin na ang tunay na dahilan ng pag-alis niya sa Eat Bulaga

Months after announcing her departure from Eat Bulaga, actress and TV host Ruby Rodriguez finally reveals the reason as to why she decided to leave the longest running noon time show she has been a long part of.

According to Ruby, it was not an easy choice, but she had to in order to attend her son, Don AJ’s special needs.

“I’ve been going back and forth and all my siblings are here.

“With regards to have I relocated, have I migrated, matagal na po kaming nag-migrate, hindi lang ako nagpe-permanent stay.

“Now, with this situation, the pandemic and all, that’s not the real cause,”

As of the moment, Ruby works as Philippine Consulate in the U.S.

Don, who has a “very rare auto-immune disease” as of Ruby, is currently receiving medications.

“Matagal na po kasi ito na magbe-break dapat ako because as everybody knows, my son AJ—hindi ko ikinahihiya and I’m very proud of it—my son is a special student…
“Meron pa po siya na very rare na autoimmune disease, it’s called Henoch–Schönlein purpura na ang tinitira nun is the kidney. It’s very rare.

“Usually daw kapag uma-attack ‘yon, one time lang. Kaya lang yung kanya, chronic, kaya rare. Kasi hindi dapat paulit-ulit.

“Yung sa kanya, talagang dire-diretso kaya na-damage yung kidneys niya.

“Na-kidney biopsy na siya kasi he already has Stage 2 nephritis.”

Continued the actress, “We had to bring him here since he’s a citizen and get medical treatment.

“Sabi ng mga doktor sa Pilipinas, ‘Sige, ipa-check niyo na kasi they have better medications, they’re more advance in some ways.’

“We have a doctor here, and what he’s trying to avoid with the medication of my son, we’re avoiding he gets dialysis at a very young age or, worst case scenario, kidney transplant because he’s too young.

“Since kailangan niyang mag-medical treatment dito, alangan namang wala ang ina?Puwedeng wala ang ama pero ang ina, hindi. Family first, he’s my son.

“Bakit ba tayo nagtatrabaho? Bakit pa ako magtatrabaho, para sa mga anak ko, lalo na para kay AJ.”
