The Jaworski family broke its silence over the condition of patriarch Sonny.
In a statement, the family has requested for continued prayers and well-wishes as he is recovering from pneumonia complications.
“Last year he was hospitalized due to a bout with pneumonia.
“He, however, tested negative for COVID-19. Due to a non-life threatening blood abnormality that was discovered in 2016, the former senator has experienced difficulty in regaining his strength, weight, and normal well-being. Despite this, he is making good progress and is slowly moving forward,” read the family’s statement.
Last March 8, Jaworski celebrated his 75th birthday.
An outpouring of greetings was received by the family during that day which was not taken for granted by the Jaworskis.
“Natuwa po at napaligaya po ninyo ang aming ama,” said the statement.
Jaworski is also part of the 2021 class of the Philippine Sports Hall of Fame.
