In an incredible turn of events, Dr. Willie Ong’s sarcoma, a highly aggressive form of cancer, has shrunk by 60% in just six weeks. The remarkable progress was confirmed through PET scan results, which showed a dramatic reduction in the active cancer cells. The scans, where the illuminated areas represented the cancerous cells, have significantly dimmed—a testament to the success of the treatment. “Miracles do happen,” Dr. Ong proclaimed.
Dr. Ong’s Singapore-based oncologist, Dr. Ang Peng Tiam, expressed his amazement, stating, “I can only say that GOD LOVES YOU. I have not seen a sarcoma respond as quickly as yours.” Dr. Ang emphasized that sarcoma is notoriously difficult to treat, making Dr. Ong’s response even more extraordinary.
Recalling the initial days of his diagnosis, Dr. Ong shared the emotional toll it took on him and his colleagues. With a 16 cm tumor invading vital blood vessels, the situation appeared grim. “Inoperable, they said. A hopeless and terminal case on the brink of death,” he remembered. However, through a combination of faith, expert medical care, and the unwavering support of loved ones, his story took an unexpected and miraculous turn.
Dr. Ong’s journey led him to Singapore, where he received specialized care under Dr. Ang’s team. Reflecting on his journey, Dr. Ong said, “First, I thank God for His continued guidance in my life. He plans my mission on Earth, and I follow.” He also expressed gratitude to the countless people who prayed for him, his medical team, his family, and his supporters who stood by him throughout the ordeal.
While overjoyed by his recovery, Dr. Ong remains focused on a bigger mission. “Curing myself is just HALF of the battle plan. The important step is FIXING the broken healthcare system in our country,” he said. As someone who has personally experienced both the triumphs and challenges of healthcare systems, Dr. Ong emphasized the urgency of improving healthcare accessibility in the Philippines. He also called for collective efforts to fight corruption, which he believes hinders the progress of the country’s medical services.
Dr. Ong’s inspiring journey continues to touch lives, not just through his medical recovery, but through his unwavering advocacy for a better healthcare system in the Philippines.
