"Nagkasakit po ako. Influenza, yung parang trangkaso. So down po ako ng 5 days. Pero don't worry negative na po ako. Pero nalungkot ako kasi gusto ko talagang makasama sa parada dahil gusto kong makita yung mga tao," Vilma said.
"Unfortunately, hindi ako pinayagan ng doktor kasi mahirap makahawa ako," she added.
Instead Ate Vi made her presence felt through an audio message she prepared that was played during the ride, sharing how much love she has for her fans.
With her relentless commitment to "When I Met You In Tokyo," the tireless efforts took a toll on Vilma’s health.
