Sa pinakabagong ulat kaugnay ng kundisyon ni Dolphy, sinabi ng anak nitong si Eric Quizon sa isang press conference ngayong gabi, June 22, na nagkaroon na naman ng pneumonia ang Comedy King.

Ito ang ikalabing-isang beses na dinapuan ng pneumonia ang beteranong aktor.

Dagdag ni Eric, "They're now administering antibiotics again. With the antibiotics, mas groggy siya ngayon.

"At least na-detect nang maaga, so, hopefully, he survives this.”

Dahil sa sakit ng Comedy King na chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) ay nahihirapan ang pagdaloy ng hangin sa kanyang baga.

Natuklasan ng mga doktor ni Dolphy ang pneumonia pagkatapos nitong lagnatin habang naka-confine sa Makati Medical Center.

Ayon kay Eric, "He has pneumonia on both sides of his lungs. That's the downside."

May nakakabit pa rin daw na respirator sa Hari ng Komedya upang tulungan siyang makahinga.

Samantala, nagdesisyon na rin ang mga doktor ni Dolphy na itigil na ang pagda-dialysis dito.

Ang dialysis ay isang prosesong medikal kunsaan tinatanggal ang dumi at sobrang tubig mula sa dugo.

Ang desisyon na itigil na ang dialysis ay ginawa kaninang umaga pagkatapos tumaas ang heart rate at bumaba ang blood pressure ng 83-anyos na komedyante.

Ngunit sabi ni Eric, “However, he’s been regulated. His heart rate is still fluctuating, but his blood pressure has been regulated.”

    Let's pray for Dolphy,He needs prayers. The Doctor has decided to stop dialysis, he' s body can't take it anymore . He won't have enough strength. The family seems to be prepared enough,in most cases like these they have been informed what to expect. Some accepts facts,while some living with science.

    tama sinabi mo pusongdurog - napakadaling magsabi ng iba na mag-LET GO na sa pamilya ni Dolphy pero kung di kayo ang nasa sitwasyon ng pamilya at mga mahal niya sa buhay then do not judge them just PRAY for them and Dolphy. For sure, his family and the doctors are doing the best that they can to make him as comfortable as possible. The doctors are usually honest and frank enough to tell the family kung may pag-asa pa ba o wala for someone to recover. That was how the doctors were when my mom was in ICU. You have mixed emotions - of not bearing to see them that way but on the other hand trying to give them the BEST MEDICAL CARE possible esp if there is still a glimmer of HOPE at nakikita mong lumalaban pa rin ang may katawan - even just one bit.

    Tama na please. Gamit na gamit na si Dolphy. Yung pamilya nya, mga celebrities, pwede naman maging concerned at emotional nang walang painterview. Pati press nakatambay sa hospital na parang death watch. Is this still about Dolphy or is this about people around him seeking attention? Give the man some peace and dignity.

    Kung taga-media ka, maiintindihan mo kung bakit nila ini interview ang mga artistang ito, part iyon ng trabaho ng media at bilang pakikisama, kaya nagpapa-interview rin ang mga artista pero hindi nila ginagamit si Mang Dolphy, dahil hindi naman sila ang nagsasabi sa media na interviewhin nyo kami, kundi ang media ang gustong ma-interview silang malalapit kay mang Dolphy. Ang press nandoon sa hospital, dahil part iyon ng trabaho nila.

    it is sad na sobrang pinahirapan lang sya sa lahat ng procedures sa mga possible final days nya. mahirap talaga sa mga pamilya mag let go. pero kung ka-pamilya ko ang nasa ganung sitwasyon, mas gugustuhin ko na maging comportable nalang ang buhay nya imbes na pahabain pa kasi obvious naman na hindi na kaya ng katawan nya at nagsusuffer lang sila sa mga procedures.

    Of course, no one wants to see Mang Dolphy go. But, we have to let him go. I'm extremely sad. As if he will be leaving a large void in my life, since I was a fan eversince .. God bless you, Mang Dolphy.. Let us continue praying.. Lift him up to the Lord...

    Mang Dolphy contracts pneumonia again.. pang ikalabing -isang beses ng dinapuan ng sakit na pneumonia si mang Dolphy.Pneumonia can be very fatal and breathing can get very exhausting for an 82 years old like mang Dolphy lalo na may COPD siya. A few years ago my cousin was hospitalized because of pneumonia he hated to go to the hospital for an iv antibiotics kaya doctors used some kind of antibiotics injection para dumeretso sa bloodstream niya as well as medication to treat his condition caused by bacteria. Antibiotics ussually work well in younger people since my cousin is young and healthy with a strong immune system he recovered after one week.My prayers to mang Dolphy.

    He is very susceptible to infection. Mababa ang resistance niya. Kaya kayong mga celebrities na gustong gustong ma-media na masabi lang na dumalaw kayo, huwag na kayong lumapit sa kanya. Ipagdasal na lang ninyo siya. Si Ai Ai, nagsabi pang pumasok sa intensive care unit. Gamitin naman ninyo ang inyong mga utak paminsan minsan. Nahihiya lang magsabi ang pamilya ni Dolphy na huwag kayong lumapit. Use your common sense celebrities. Kung gusto ninyo, ipagdasal na lang ninyo. At saka si Boy Abunda, obligado bang banggitin isa isa ang mga artistang dumalaw ? Dito, bawal ang pumasok sa intensive care unit, unless you are a part of the medical staff and family. Sometimes, family is limited to the closest relative of the sick. Spouse and kids.

    puwedeng pumasok sa ICU provided na pa isa isa lang at hindi crowded ang pasyente at may pahintulot nang doctor at family. hindi naman lahat nang dumalaw kay mang dolphy ay pinayagan pumasok siyempre like maricel, smokey and ai ai big part na nang buhay ni mang dolphy sila kaya considered na family sila. hindi naman sila sabay sabay.

    He can still live for two weeks without dialysis uncle ko ganon....Mabuhay pa sana siya kung he decided to continue the dialysis, but he said dialysis made his whole body sore.....esp the muscles. He called up his whole family coz he knew he would eventually die w/out dialysis. Him was different coz he did not have pneumonia just kidney failure in general.

    dolphy really needed the dialysis kasi para ung toxic sa katawan matanggal, kung wala ng dialysis, its gonna go downhill. its sad na hindi na kaya ng katawan nya mag compensate. i'm sure he's really tired from the procedures na unless they keep him sedated. miracles do happen.

    Kawawa naman si Mang Pidol...if he's on dialysis, that means his kidneys have failed and are not functioning anymore...tsk..tsk..I hope na if it gets too hard for him, to let go. Marami na siyang natulungan at napatawang tao, maybe it's time for him to rest and be with his Creator for eternal happiness.

    he has been living a good life....ang panalangin ko para kay mang dolphy ay sana huwag na siyang gaanong maghirap pa. kung ang will ng Diyos ay kuhain na siya at magpahinga na, sana matutunan ng mga mahal nya sa buhay na tanggapin yun. mahirap mawalan ng mahal sa buhay, pero mas mahirap yung dinadanas ng maysakit sa lahat ng medical procedures na pinagdadaan nya
