But only after Ma Ka Pa's wife called, I called Thompson - that was when he confirmed the news to me, breaking down."
"He was hospitalized for 15-20 days after he suffered a stroke and I came to knew about it only recently. He should have told about this to us or to the channel. He should have spoke to someone.
