In a post, Rico Blanco asked for prayers for his brother.
OPM icon Rico Blanco has this post about this special person in his life who is currently battling cancer disease.
Fighting against cancer is such a tough battle but on the other side of this, there’s strength that surfaced from within that we never thought we had. There’s incredible resilience and strength.
But more than highlighting these strengths, there’s a far greater journey in this which is the treatment and recovery. Recently, in a post, OPM icon and singer-songwriter, Rico Blanco shared a piece of sad news about his brother who is just a year younger than him.
They have this one-year gap that made them build a special bond with each other. They were each other’s best friend and they did almost everything together. They were like twins and they “shared so many adventures and fought so many battles alongside each other”.
However, a few weeks before, a piece of terrible news about him having cancer was dropped on them like a bomb – unexpected but loud and deafening. He wrote, “The signs all came too rapidly and seemingly out of nowhere, and by the time we got the full diagnosis, we were told he already has an advanced and very aggressive type of squamous cell carcinoma (sinus).”
Blanco’s brother already started his treatment and they could only pray that they were still not too late. They also decided to share this news with the public to ask for help through prayers for his strength and healing. They don’t know what’s ahead of them but they never allowed their hopes to waver.
This is their toughest battle and he added, “I cannot bear to imagine a world without him in it.”
