Update: Instead of flower arrangements and Mass cards, Pia Arroyo-Magalona asks the fans of her husband to give cash or blood donations instead to the Philippine National Red Cross. She says she doesn't want Francis's death to be meaningless, and noted that the PNRC was very helpful to Francis throughout his fight against cancer.

Tanghali ng March 6, 2009 nang i-announce ni Vic Sotto sa Eat Bulaga ang pagpanaw ng Man From Manila, Francis Magalona.
starsIn August 2008, the Master Rapper was diagnosed with Acute Myelogenous Leukemia, a diagnosis that took him temporarily out of the limelight. Although he returned and even performed in the noontime show last October 25, by November 2008, he had to be re-confined sa hospital, and had been in and out since then.
Last January 2009, he posted on his blog that he will be undergoing his fourth chemotherapy session. Through his Fanatxt messages, he kept his fans updated, and told them that he will be having a marrow transplant operation this month.
Throughout it all, Francis remained steadfast in his faith -- never wavering. Here’s what he answered when asked by iGMA.tv in an exclusive interview as to what keeps him strong.
"The Lord, I always pray to him, my children and family, and all the people who have been praying for me -- my followers, supporters, of course, Eat Bulaga family—they've been with me throughout this journey, and I'm still undergoing treatment -- in December I'll do my third chemotherapy treatment for the year. This is all part of maintenance program."
Eternal Repose grant unto the soul of FRANCIS MAGALONA O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him May he rest in peace. Amen And may the souls of all the faithful departed through the mercy of God rest in peace.
