Carlos Salvador Bilardo He is 83 years old and in 2017 he was diagnosed with a degenerative disease known as syndrome of Hakim-Adams, so his state of health is delicate and sYour family tries to protect you from any kind of upset that may affect you. That is why they have decided to hide certain sensitive information from you such as the death of Diego Armando Maradona.

The former coach of the Argentine national team who, together with Ten He was champion of the 1986 World Cup and lives quietly in the comfort of his home and under the care of a group of specialists who work to make his days as pleasant as possible. They are in charge of complying with the order of their family to prevent unpleasant news from reaching their ears. That is why they have put together a kind of operation to prevent any leak, according to Jorge, his brother.

In dialogue with the program Sports Summary on Radio Republic, Jorge gave details of how they take care of the Doctor: “He still does not know that Diego died, we change the channel, we distract him, we tell him on another channel he looks better. The nurses are already horny, they tell him ‘stop, Carlos, we’ll see him on another channel’ ”.

It is that Bilardo does not want to miss any game and less of the National Team, that is why they took special care on Monday when the Albiceleste faced Chile for the first day of Group A of the Copa América: “They waited until the tribute ended (to put the correct channel on it)”. In addition, Jorge explained that there are several deaths that he is unaware of: “He does not know the death of Tata (Brown), (Alejandro) Sabella or Malbernat (his former partner in Estudiantes de La Plata). And when he asks about Diego ‘he asks you, he says’ where is 10?’. What do I know, he must be lying around in Europe and we change the conversation ”.

At the same time, Jorge said that Carlos carefully observes the matches in Argentina but keeps criticism to himself. He also gave details of how his day to day is: “He gets up at nine, has breakfast, he has two nurses, one in the morning and the other in the afternoon, someone always comes to visit him: Lemme, Ruggeri, Burruchaga. At noon he eats, takes a nap, watches a game in the afternoon, his grandchildren visit him, his wife, his daughter, he watches a movie and at 12 o’clock at night he goes to sleep, a normal life. He is doing well, as seen in the photo, improving, he already has two doses of the vaccine (containing the coronavirus) ”.

The photo you alluded to is the one published in May that shows it with a good demeanor. The smile of the former coach of the selection generated tranquility and relief regarding his current status, after an extensive hospitalization. The Narigón had then received a visit from Michelangelo Lemme, who was one of the players who was in charge of that remembered Students of La Plata 1982. The current DT happened to see him and they clasped in an embrace that was spread by the journalist Walter grasso on social media.

Bilardo was diagnosed in 2017 with Hakim-Adams syndrome, also known as normal pressure hydrocephalus or normal pressure hydrocephalus. From this, his condition led him to have a series of hospitalizations in recent years.

As fluid increases, the ventricles increase in size and pressure increases within the skull as the surrounding brain tissue is compressed, leading to neurological complications.

Your questions about Maradona are nothing new. In May of this year, Lemme had counted on Super Deportivo Radio who also had to evade the consultations of the former Boca Juniors and Estudiantes coach: “‘Where is the 10? ‘ That the madman knows where he is, where the hell is this boy going. Every time something like this appears, the boys change what he is looking at, they don’t want him to see ”.

On the other hand, Lemme recalled in that interview funny moments that occur when he goes to visit him: “When I go we play dominoes, I carry it, I turn it around the armchairs, and it says: And this one, who beat him! Besides he cheats you because you neglect yourself for a little while, he looks at your chips and if he doesn’t have the winner, he leaves it and grabs another one “.
