Agnes Ignacia: PGT contestant, pianist, survivor

Agnes Ignacia was one of the memorable performers last night at the Pilipinas Got Talent Season 2.


She survived cancer for more than ten years now... after living a solitary life (as she claimed so). A solitary life because her husband left her when they found out she has cancer and when they were about to celebrate their silver wedding anniversary. She said he doesn't want to spend for her medical condition. Aside from this, her siblings are nowhere to find, too. She thinks they left her because they fear that her cancer might recur and you know what happens when it does.

She teaches music to kids in the outskirts of Romblon. Far from civilization. She joined the search in the hope to win only because of two things: to continue her check-up and to buy piano in order to continue teaching the many kids who are looking up to her... and praying for her.

A one, true inspiration.

I wanted a clearer video, but this is the only one available.
