On November 29, the OPM veteran confirmed via Facebook post that they all tested positive except for his eldest son.

It was on November 27 when he and his family undergo swab testing for COVID-19 and unfortunately, the results turned out positive.

On December 3, he took to the social networking site anew wherein he posted a prayer for his family.

“Dear Lord, please don’t let this be the saddest Christmas for the Fuentes family. COVID STATUS: Both Mei-ling and I have been admitted in the hospital with Mei-ling being the hardest hit. She has difficulty breathing and had to be intubated at the ICU,” he said.

“I am sending this note to my wife. I don’t know if she can read or respond: Sweetie, I know how difficult this must be for you. You definitely are the anchor of the family. But the virus has stolen life from us. IF you feel that you don’t want to fight this thing anymore, just ‘whisper’ in my spirit and we can both go home together. Without you, my life is meaningless. We’ve lived a full life – 42 years of God’s amazing grace. My only regret is I didn’t treat you much better than you deserve. That’s on me. But through the years one thing became increasingly clear: You are definitely God’s gift to me,” he added.

According to Ray-An Fuentes, he has been moved to the critical care unit while in an oxygen tank. He was also given “antibiotics and steroids plus insulin shots.”

Ray-An Fuentes, who is now a Pastor, rose to fame as the singer of the classic OPM hit, “Umagang Kay Ganda” along with Tillie Moreno.

In 1988, he left the entertainment industry and in 1997, he migrated to Canada with his family.
