MANILA, Philippines - Jessica Zafra has been hospitalized since Monday after being found "disoriented" on her residence's staircase.
According to a Facebook post shared by Joel Pablo Salud on Tuesday, Jessica had fever for several days before she was found “conscious but disoriented†in her house.
The post, which came from Zafra's friend, Ramon Sunico, said that Zafra: "did not suffer a stroke, but was dehydrated, which resulted in an electrolyte imbalance. CT and MRI scans show some inflammation of the brain, which may be due to an infection. She is now undergoing neurological observation."
At the moment, Jessica is accompanied by her sister Cheryl.
Sunico's post asked for help for the hospitalization of Zafra.
“As is the case with almost all artists who work freelance, Jessica does not have health insurance,†Joel explained.
"Those who would like to make a donation for Jessica's hospitalization and medical care can deposit directly to Cookie's Security Bank account, which is under the name of Cheryl Ann Grace Z. de Jesus."
