Earlier on Thursday, February 26, Christopher Liggayu, the father of Jam's fiancee Paolinne Michelle "Mich" Liggayu, received an urgent call to go to St. Luke's immediately. With Mich, they rushed back to the hospital. "Ang daming doctors and nurses pag pasok ko at ang dami ng naka kabit kay Jam na mga machines. Ok na yunLord, he put up a good fight. Hindi na namin kaya makita na nahihirapan siya," he said on Facebook. (There were many doctors and nurses when I went in the room, and Jam was hooked up to many machines. Lord, he put up a good fight. We can't bear to see him like this.)


The next update about his health, posted by an administrator of Jam and Mich's official Facebook page, was about a slight improvement: "Nag rerespond na po si kuya jam. Lalaban siya! Please pray for him! Thank you!" (Brother Jam is responding. He's fighting! Please pray for him! Thank you!)

Later on, Christopher posted another update, saying that Jam continued to be on life support. His medication was being carefully calculated, with Jam closely monitored by a private nurse. "He was supposed to be brought down to the ICU but the family opted for him to stay in his room," he said in the update posted in the wee hours of the morning Friday, February 27.

The next update, posted late in the morning Friday, February 27, was a post containing the Prayer of Surrender, and accompanied by a collage of photos showing Mich by Jam's side.

Fans and celebrity friends took to social media to rally support for Jam. TV host and actressKris Aquino dropped by the hospital to visit:"It was a long day & night. I received several texts from @gretchenfullido regarding Jam. Immediately after MalacaƱang, I went to St. Luke's, I didn't want to waste time changing so I went in my gown because the texts' urgency was evident. Tonight I had the privilege of meeting a mother whose LOVE for her 2 sons mirrors mine. Mommy Maricar was so appreciative of my effort & I realized all of us mothers will be grateful for kindness shown to our children. I should be the 1 thanking her, for reminding me to continue prioritizing & treasuring my sons even more. My prayers are w/ her, their family, close friends and Jam- that God may ease his suffering. And that they will continue to have unwavering faith in our Creator's love," she wrote on Instagram.

INFINITE's power dancer Hoya recently appeared on 4 Things Show and talked about the after effects of playing a gay character in the hit series Reply 1997.
