A Compañero to remember: The Rene Cayetano Story

Everyone hails Senator Rene Cayetano as one of the best lawyers the country has produced, and his unwavering quest for justice is well-documented. But how did he fare against the greatest battle he had ever faced – a threatening illness?

This episode follows the last two years of his life. As his Hepatitis-B condition worsens, it is found that only a liver transplant can save his life. Family, friends and staff offer to help – but it is discovered that his youngest son Lino is the fittest donor. Can a son’s love for his father create a miracle?

Ronaldo Valdez and John Lloyd Cruz portray Rene and Lito Cayetano, respectively, while Charo Santos-Concio hosts. Don’t miss this episode, as the director and co-writer is none other than Lino Cayetano himself. Maalaala Mo Kaya, this Friday (Jan. 26) after Maging Sino Ka Man.
