Elizabeth Ramsey in hospital after stroke
MANILA -- Singer and comedienne Elizabeth Ramsey, dubbed as the country's "Queen of Rock and Roll," has been admitted to a hospital after suffering a stroke on Thursday, her daughter said.
Singer Jaya Ramsey shared the news on her Facebook account where she wrote: "my mama had a stroke today, I'm at my saddest but still praise God for He is in control!!! Please if you can, say a little prayer for my dearest mother. Thank you."
She later added: "Thank you to all of you who prayed for Mama Beth. God bless all of you and will update you soon of her condition, but I promise you, prayers really work!!!! God be praised for his mercy."
According to DZMM's Jobert Sucaldito, the 83-year-old Ramsey has been confined at the intensive care unit of the Philippine Heart Center.
Her niece, Edwina, said she and Ramsey were supposed to go out Thursday afternoon when the comedienne had a seizure. Medical tests later revealed her blood sugar level shot up to 500.
Edwina also told Sucaldito that Ramsey still cannot move the right side of her body, and is unable to recognize anyone when she wakes up.
