Filipina actress Kaye Abad revealed that she has been declared cancer-free after a yearlong battle with breast cancer, sharing her journey publicly for the first time in a vlog released on her 44th birthday on 17 May.
In the emotional vlog, Abad disclosed that she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2025 and admitted she initially had no idea what treatments she would undergo.
She recalled how faith, hope, and the love of her family became her source of strength throughout the ordeal.
“For one year, ang daming moments of fear, uncertainties, and pain. But also, so much faith, hope, and love that carried me through. And today, I can finally say I’m a cancer survivor,” she said in the video.
Abad said she decided to document her journey because she was uncertain about how her battle would end.
The actress shared that her health concerns began in 2024 after experiencing severe stomach pain for six hours, which later prompted doctors to recommend a mammogram.
She and her husband, Paul Jake Castillo, eventually decided to continue her treatment in Singapore.
Abad admitted that one of the hardest parts of the diagnosis was the thought of being away from her children while undergoing treatment.
After a year of treatments, Abad said her doctor finally informed her that she is now officially cancer-free.
