"The entire year na nagpapagamot siya, he has gone through so much pain. Hirap na hirap na hirap na hirap na talaga siya na minsan, hindi ko alam kung ipagdadasal ko ba na pahabain pa yung buhay niya pero ganito, or kung kunin na lang siya para hindi siya mahirapan. So, hindi ko na alam kung alin dun yung hihilingin ko. But more than that, I was really praying for a miracle that he will get better," says Camille Prats about the ordeal she went through when her husband Anthony Linsangan was diagnosed with cancer.

Isang araw pagkatapos pumanaw ng kanyang mister na si Anthony Linsangan, sa kauna-unahang pagkakataon ay nagpaunlak ng panayam ang aktres na si Camille Prats.

Sumakabilang buhay si Anthony kahapon, September 23, dahil sa nasopharyngeal cancer sa edad lamang na 31. (CLICK HERE to read related story.)

Sa mismong burol ni Anthony sa Heritage Park sa Taguig City nakausap ng Startalk si Camille. Ipinalabas ang naturang interview kaninang hapon, September 24.

YOUNG WIDOW. Dito ay ipinahayag ng 26-year-old actress ang kanyang saloobin sa pagkamatay ng kanyang asawa.

"Okay naman, medyo... siyempre mahirap.

"Pero siguro, the family, ako, medyo nakita... hindi naman nakita, pero hinanda naman namin ang sarili namin na kung sakali man na dito papunta...

"Pero siyempre, mahirap pa din.

"Hindi ka makapaniwala kasi he's very young. At that time, he was only turning 30."

Ang tinutukoy ni Camille ay magti-thirty years old pa lang noon si Anthony nang ma-diagnose siya na may cancer. Stage 4 na ang cancer ni Anthony nang matuklasan na meron siya nito.

Patuloy pa niya, "So siyempre, parang hindi totoo.

"Kasi parang hindi... it's not possible for someone his age to acquire a disease like that.

"Pero ni-rule out agad yung cancer kasi nga sa edad niya.

"Tapos iyon, so when we found out that it was cancer, siyempre parang hindi ako makapaniwala na parang we had to go through it.

"But of course, we had hope.

"Kaya kami nag-resort to treatment and all those things, kasi nga we had hope that he will get better at kakayanin niya.

    no. 32 - ronareyes God has a purpose on everything. So sad that you don't believe in such supernatural being. You need to check your life thoroughly and look back on what happened in your life. Your blessings, your trials, your family and loved ones. Do you think that all those things just happened without any reason? Some reasons are beyond our knowledge because human as we are, only God can explain and eventually we'll understand in time. You need to change your outlook in life while you still have time. Anyways, if Camille's situation right now happened to me, I would initially react like her and even question God. As difficult as it may seem, time will heal those wounds and if you hold on to something, we can move on to our life and continue our journey on earth.

    people are designed differently. what works for one will most certainly not work for others. during unfortunate times, folks will find sources of strength, no matter what or who it is. there's no point really in telling people what and what not to believe. there's this thing called respect, especially with other people's beliefs. and that should be the main consideration. there's no use opening up pandora's box. pointless pointless.

    ronareyes. kakakilabot naman ang comment mo. sana man lang you can put your belief in God in a gamble's perspective to say the least. If you believe there is God and there is God indeed, you win. If you believe there is God and there was none, so what, you lose nothing. Bottom line is, you're not at the losing end if you ultimately believe that there is God.

    God has nothing to do with what happened and what will happen after this incident. There is no god. Time is the healer. And your innate inner strength given by Mother Nature will see you through, Camille. You are going to be alright because you will choose to be alright. You are surrounded by good family, friends, work. "God has a purpose, god will help you, mysterious ways..." DUH! Masisira lang ulo mo kakaisip ng purpose na yan. Purpose for what?!?! That is just how life is. No supernatural corny explanation necessary.

    camille, i know where you're coming from. i also didn't -i still don't until now, and it's running two years- understand why i had to be the one to 'put an end' to my mom's life. but i guess i've proven that time teaches us to learn to live with the things that are inevitable. cry, cry, cry and let it all out till the pain eases. do that for a hundred times if you must. one day soon it will be less difficult to live with. the tears will come every once in a while, but you'll be a stronger person then.

    bwiset talaga yang cancer na yan! dapat talaga yang sakit na yan ang mas pagtuunan ng pansin sa research, kasi parang kahit sino pwedeng magkaroon. dapat mas i-prioritize ang paghanap ng cancer cure kesa sa AIDS cure.

    i guessed, bago sila ikinasal, may ilang cancerous cells na nade-develop. no one could tell, may cancer at very early stage. yun dapat ang pagtuunan ng pansin sa medical research, early diagnosis of cancer cells. condolence to camille and to all families and relatives of her husband.

    Condolences to you and your family. In God's time Camille, maiintindihan mo din lahat. For now, just be strong for Nathan. I know it's easy to say that he is in a better position right but it'll never ease the pain. But in His time, you will.

    Camille, things happen in our life that we can never fully understand. Just remember that we will all die, and when we face our Creator we can ask Him those things. Just pray to the Lord to give you wisdom to accept His plans for you. Because indeed He has plans for each one of us. Jeremiah 29 verse 11. Condolence. Seek for Him and He will give you peace beyond understanding.
