Former sexy actress Janice Jurado narrates the story of her drug addiction and survival on “I Survived,” this Thursday, August 6 on ABS-CBN.

Anchor Ces Drilon will cut deep into Janice’s life starting at the prime of her showbiz career when she became an alcoholic. She lost showbiz projects and neglected her children who were young adults during those times. She even became a star showgirl in a nightclub.

Taking drugs did not only make her deliver her lines better and be more daring in shows, it also helped her escape from her problems as well. However, she would soon lose control of herself and also lose the trust of her showbiz colleagues.

One night, she injected herself with ten shots of nalbuphine, a painkiller. She thought the syringe needle was left inside her so she punctured herself with a clothesline wire to push the needle from her shoulder to her hand. She almost died of overdose and tetanus. She was in a coma for almost a year.

After going through detoxification and soul-searching, Janice is now drug-free. Now, she wants to serve as a “warning” to others.

Join Ces Drilon as she uncovers Janice Jurado’s fight against drugs this Thursday, August 6 on “I Survived,” after “Bandila” on ABS-CBN.
