Sara Duterte advised to ‘get more rest by doctors,’ has to skip SONA

We hope she is OK.

Davao City Mayor Sara Duterte had planned to attend her father the first State of the Nation Address (SONA) but now she has to skip the event after being advised by her doctors to get some rest.

According to Jefry Tupas, Davao City Information Officer, Sara went to St. Luke’s Medical Center for a medical check-up upon her arrival in Manila on Mon morning, Jul 25.

Tupas explained, “She was advised complete rest at least for a couple of days by her doctor. But there is nothing to worry [about]. The mayor is doing well now.”

He added, “That she will not able to attend the SONA is something that the mayor deeply regrets as she wants to be with the President during this very important occasion and proud moment for the Filipinos and the Philippines.”

“Sara’s husband, Atty. Manases Carpio, will be attending the SONA,” reports Nestor Corrales on Inquirer.net.
