Rio – Arlindo Cruz, 65 years old, was once again admitted to the Casa de Saúde São José, in Humaitá, in the South Zone of Rio. The samba singer, who suffered a stroke 7 years ago, was admitted to the health unit this Sunday (21 ) with bradycardia, which is an irregular or slow heart rate. On Instagram, Babi Cruz, the artist’s wife, spoke about his health.
“Yes, we had to hospitalize Arlindo. He has an autoimmune disease, which makes him more fragile, he has a trachestomy, he has a gastrostomy (GTT). He has been bedridden for 7 years and we arrived with bradycardia, which was controlled in time”, began Babi Cruz. “He has everything balanced again, within his possibilities, within the situation he finds himself in, he is doing very well”, she reassured.
Babi also clarified that Arlindo Cruz did not need to be admitted to the CTI. “He is in a semi-intensive care, next to me, calm, being taken care of with everything he needs, with everything he deserves, the way he needs to be. I want to thank you for your affection, your strength. And, of course, the prayers, long live Saint George, long live the warrior Arlindo Cruz”, she concluded.
