At 90 years old in December, Curro Romero has had to be hospitalized after breaking his hip. Although the fall occurred on Friday, It was not until Sunday when both he and his wife, Carmen Tello, were aware of the seriousness of the matter. and they made the decision that the best thing was to go to the hospital.
The bullfighter – who is at the Virgen Macarena Hospital, in Seville – will undergo surgery this Wednesday, May 29. According to Seville newspaper, suffered a spectacular fall while trying to get up without anyone’s help. He lost his balance. After receiving help and getting up, he did not feel so much pain, so he decided to continue as normal and not go to the hospital.
So much so that the fall did not prevent him from going to Las Ventas in Madrid this Saturday to enjoy his great passion. That same day, in addition, he was at the Bernabéu watching the league match between Real Madrid and Betis, as Telecinco reports. On Sunday, however, the pain grew and he had to go to the hospital, urged by his wife. He was admitted but they did not operate immediately because he needs anticoagulant medication due to his medical history.
