Walcyr Carrasco
The author Walcyr Carrasco recorded a video this Thursday (28) to explain why he left “Terra e Paixão”, a nine o’clock soap opera on Globo. At 71, Walcyr is struggling with health problems: he fell and broke his femur after eye surgery.
According to Walcyr, he was in the hospital for twelve days and decided to record the video to reassure the fans of the soap opera and prevent a break with Globo. “I started cataract surgery and when I started I had already tapped into the talent of Thelma Guedes. Thelma is a great author and is doing me a favor. Because I had cataract surgery, I won’t see it. I’m going to spend a few weeks like this. She joined the team [de Terra e Paixão]”Walcyr began.
The author complained about speculation about his health and made a point of showing that he is alive. “It was enough to make the headlines. They basically put me in a coffin. But then I fell and broke my femur. The operation itself went quickly. I received good care at the Sírio Libanês Hospital.” “That made me happy. It forced him to stay in the hospital for a while,” he said.
Walcyr tried to dispel doubts about thigh surgery. “Secret: I wrote from the hospital. Thelma went to the hospital and we shot scenes from the hospital. Guys, at some point we thought about everything that was in the air. Now I’m back. I didn’t “I didn’t lose my leg, I just broke my femur. Soon I’ll be at full speed, but I don’t want to be at full speed because I’ve found wonderful people to work with. “Terra e Paixão is a success,” he added.
The author of the Globo soap opera received support from celebrities. “You are always brilliant! In particular! Get better! Health! Success! Amen,” said Tatá Werneck. “Hello my love, I didn’t know. Good health and wellbeing to you!” wished Vanessa Giácomo.
“My dear, you look great as always, I have two prosthetics attached to both hips, it’s just like that, you know, the dogs are barking and the caravan is passing by! What this little mind doesn’t lack is ideas, I love you, And when you need it, always count on me!” said Elizabeth Savala.
