It was only last May when Emman looked back at his journey as a YouTuber since 2011, before announcing that he has been diagnosed with acute myeloid leukemia.

“Ito na siguro yung pinaka-malaking hamon na binigay sa ‘kin ng nasa itaas. Mahaba-habang pakikipagtalo sa sarili bago ko tuluyang mai-post ‘tong video na to. Pero sa napagtanto ko, kailangan niyo rin talaga ‘to malaman. Masyado nang malayo yung pinagsamahan natin para hindi ko kayo isama sa biyahe na ito. Medyo malubak lang at matarik kumpara sa mga naunang biyahe. Pero kapit lang. Makakatawid tayo,” he wrote in the caption of the video he posted, which became YouTube’s #1 on Trending back then.
