He also explained: “He can breathe on his own right now.” “He has some lung problems and he has problems with other things that he has had before and when he was initially hospitalized for the general check-up, things appeared that he was not treating”he added.
Later, the comedian’s brother referred to the problems he has not addressed. “Antonio has an ulcer and esophageal problem that has not been treated. It is a chronic thing that can be mitigated, but they manage it. When this becomes inflamed, things that do not have to go to the lung are transferred to the lung and that is where the infection comes.”, revealed.
Then, one of the panelists asked him if he fed himself, and Carlos responded: “He started eating on his own again, but the food was aspirated into his lungs. So, the food has to be given from another source.”
“What he is having now is a physical issue. The other problem is being treated and everything, but it is already an irreversible issue.”, he expressed. Finally, Carlos closed: “The cognitive problem does not allow him to locate himself. He doesn’t miss anything. I would say that he is very unaware of where he is.”
