Big was not responding well, the doctors told me, my mother, and influencer Handson Silva as we waited, but on the following day, April 12, she was extubated.
She spoke. I questioned, “Are you in pain, is it getting better?” She said she was feeling pain in the drain,” Fabiola stated. Flávia remained awake on the 13th.
“She was in pain, but she started breathing hard. When she arrived on the 14th, it was my turn to visit and she was intubated again. Since then, my sister has been intubated for ten days. And every day is a different one.

Additionally, at the age of 10, she was admitted to the hospital due to germs in her kidney. She used Captopril, a blood pressure medication., according to Globo.com.
