“Ano ba ang wish ko? I am so happy right now.

“I’m in such a good place.

“I’m with my family, with people who really matter.

“Gusto ko maging mas okay lang ang health ko this year at health ng mga taong mahalaga sa akin.

“I want to be blessed with good health para mas maging effective pa ang trabaho ko para sa lahat, ” he said.

Vice temporarily left It’s Showtime in 2013 due to the polyps that developed in his vocal cords.

It worsened when he also suffered from acid reflux.

Vice was advised then by doctors to take steroids and have a total voice rest.
