Padilla recovering from heart procedure, says senator's office
Senator Robinhood "Robin" Padilla underwent a heart procedure on Saturday, his office said.
In a statement, Padilla's camp said he had been cleared to go home after undergoing the medical procedure at the Asian Hospital in Muntinlupa City.
"The senator will continue with his recovery during the weekend, and expects to return to his work and normal routines soonest," it said.
Padilla also thanked those who prayed for his speedy recovery.
Earlier in the day, Mariel Rodriguez Padilla shared a short video with her husband during their stay in the hospital.
"We had a successful heart procedure. It’s been a rollercoaster of emotions for us, but now ultimately we are just so grateful and we are so blessed that Robin is okay," she said on Instagram.
In June, Padilla said he was hospitalized after his blood pressure shot up during their family vacation in Spain. —VBL, GMA News
