For a parent, nothing is ever more painful than seeing your child suffering. Most parents are willing to sacrifice themselves just to spare their child from sickness and hurt. However, there are times when their faith and strength as parents will be tested. This is exactly what news anchor Anthony Taberna is currently going through.
Taberna’s oldest daughter, Zoey, was diagnosed with leukemia. As part of her treatment, she needs to undergo chemotherapy. Throughout the way, the DZRH anchor and his wife, Rossel, has been supportive of their daughter.

On Instagram, Taberna recently shared that his daughter agreed to shave her head. One of the side effects of chemotherapy is hair loss, so Zoey opt to just shave her hair altogether. According to the news anchor, he still cries everytime he watches the video of his daughter shaving her head.
“Nung pumayag si Zoey na magpakalbo at nalaman kong pumunta na sa ospital ang misis ko kasama si Ate Tet, umalis muna ako. Akala ko ay malakas na ako. Marupok pala. May video habang kinakalbo si Zoey. At tuwing makikita ko iyon, hindi ko mapigil ang pagpatak ng aking luha,” wrote the anchor on Instagram.
Aside from Taberna, Rossel and her sister, Helga, also looks after Zoey. In spite of the challenges they are facing, the couple is not losing any hope. In addition to that, he also explained that he admires Zoey’s courage.
“Nakangiti siya pero alam kong durog na durog ang puso niya nu’ng nag-umpisang malagas ang kaniyang buhok dahil sa chemotherapy. Ang wala o maikling buhok ang isa sa dahilan ng insecurity ni Zoey. Pero nu’ng makita kong ipinost niya, nagpaalam ako na ipo-post ko rin. Hanga ako sa tapang ng aming panganay.”
