March 24 ----- Derrick Monasterio extended help to one of his fans who was battling throat cancer.
According to Lhar Santiago's report on "24 Oras," the fan is Monet Villarba, a hair and makeup artist. "Inspiration ko rin po kasi si Derrick Monasterio, na nung malaman niya na nagkaroon ako ng ganitong sakit, he's the one na nagsabi sa 'kin na, 'I'm always here for you,'" Monet said.
Derrick said he loves Monet, who has always hosted his fans days as a labor of love. He gave the hairstylist financial support to fight cancer and also checked in on him to provide moral support."Sinwerte lang din ako kasi ang daming pumasok na blessing sa akin so parang i-share naman natin sa mga nangangailangan, ganun. So, parang wala lang po, give back lang po," Derrick said.
After months of chemotherapy and radiation, Monet recovered and returned to work. He is also back to being an active member of Derrick's fan club, even hosting the Kapuso talent's Fans Day."'Yung time na nandoon, sabi ko, this is the moment na aside sa anniversary, aside sa masayang araw, I just want to share to everyone kung gaano siya kabait, kung gaano siya makatao," Monet said.
