Medical leave.
In August, Mike issued a statement which explained his prolonged absence. He also promised he would be back soon.
“I am currently on medical leave. I am being treated for kidney disease and I am scheduled to undergo a heart bypass operation in mid-September. My doctors have told me that two to four weeks after my surgery, I will be able to return to my normal duties. In the meantime, it is best that I rest and avoid stress to avoid any medical emergency before my bypass.
While I am not yet back on the air, I continue to perform my functions as president of RGMA Network, Inc. and as Consultant for Radio of GMA Network, Inc. I thank everyone for their expressions of support and wishes for good health, and most specially for their prayers. My doctors are good and caring and God is great! I will be back!”
