It was in April 2001 when Maritoni was diagnosed with stage 2A breast cancer. The actress was in her early thirties at the time.

But as she revealed in an interview with Philippine Daily Inquirer in 2011, Maritoni already felt a lump on her right breast after she gave birth to her first child.

She was 26. The following year, she consulted with her OB-GYN, and was told “Bata ka pa, you have nothing to worry about.

“Years later, when her mom got very sick, Maritoni flew to the U.S. to get a second opinion from her uncle, a doctor.

The actress-advocate informed her uncle about the lump. She recalled in her 2011 interview, “He asked if I had anything done.

I said yes, got the results and looked at it for the first time. “It said I have a palpable mass, calcification; the report said I should have a checkup in six months.

“My uncle asked if I could postpone the Wednesday flight to Saturday so that we can have a week to do tests.

He said, ‘Let’s do a needle biopsy.’ “I was very blessed. He’s Filipino. There was a team of 10 doctors, all Pinoy friends of my uncle.

“He came from the OR and said, ‘Positive, I’m sorry we have to remove the lump, but they still can’t tell you yet if it’s cancer.’ “They did a biopsy and found out it was positive for malignancy.

“They removed 40 percent of my right breast because they insisted that a lumpectomy is as effective as mastectomy.”

According to BreastCancer.org, lumpectomy is “surgery in which only the tumor and some surrounding tissue is removed.”

Mastectomy, on the other hand, means “the removal of the whole breast. In a 2003 interview with YES! Magazine, Maritoni opened up about her mindset then.

She said, “I’m idealistic. I really like to believe the best in everything. “But I’m also realistic. My ideals are based on reality, not on the unreachable.

“When I found out that I was sick, I took control of the situation. I prepared myself mentally. “When I got to that level, I relied on faith. The rest is really prayers.

“Talagang, ‘God do you still want me to live? Kung ayaw mo talaga, kunin mo na ako. My prayer na lang is: Don’t make it hard for me. Huwag lang masakit.’”

THE MIRACLE “I was diagnosed with breast cancer on April 04, 2001 with only a 5-year chance of survival.

I discovered Barley on the internet and took it along with my chemotherapy Now, I am in my 22nd year of survival.

Barley did not just save my life, it gave me a new life. So, I decided to take barley every day for the rest of my life.”
