Gab Valenciano was injured after being involved in an accident while riding his motorcycle on a California highway. On Monday, the Filipino dancer shared several photos of himself in a hospital bed on Instagram, showing injuries to his arm and leg. There was also a photo of his motorcycle lying on the road and an image he took while being loaded into an ambulance on a stretcher.
"I got T-boned on the highway at a speed of roughly 75 miles per hour, which threw me a good 70 feet away from the collision. I had all my protective gear on, but due to the force of the impact and momentum, it burned through my jacket and pants," wrote Gab in the caption.
Gab said that this is the first accident in his entire life that he didn't see coming at all. He has been driving for almost two decades. Prior to the accident, he had been sharing his testimony at a church.
Gab thanked all the first responders who took care of him and the motorists who came to his aid after the accident. "I want to thank all the drivers and motorcyclists who stopped to help me, check up on me, and give me water and food," he said. He also expressed his gratitude to his friends and family in the Philippines who sent their support and love.
"Lastly, I want to thank my Uncle Ranier, who picked me up from the hospital and took care of me during the first few days," said Gab. "It's been really tough to move, especially at night, considering I have cuts on my lower and upper back, so it's been hard to sleep, but I'm getting there. Slowly but surely."
In the comments, several celebrities expressed their good wishes and concern. Among them were KC Concepcion, Iya Villania, Martin Nievera, Rocco Nacino, Jak Roberto, and more.
