Marami ang bumilib sa ipinakitang lakas ng loob ng aktres na si Sunshine Cruz, 47, nang rumampa siya sa katatapos lang na Body of Work: The BENCH Show.

Ito'y sa kabila ng kanyang pinagdaraanan sa kanyang kalusugan.

Sa Instagram nitong Linggo, March 24, 2025, inamin ni Sunshine na na-diagnose siya kamakailan na may myasthenia gravis, isang uri ng autoimmune disease.

Ayon sa Mayo Clinic, ang myasthenia gravis ay autoimmune condition na nagiging sanhi ng panghihina at mabilis na pagkapagod ng mga kalamnan.

Karaniwan itong nararanasan ng mga kababaihang nasa edad 40 pataas at mga kalalakihang higit 60 ang edad.

Lumalabas sa mga pag-aaral na wala itong lunas ngunit may mga gamot na tumutulong upang ma-manage ang mga sintomas nito.
