Richard Gere’s wife spoke about the condition of her urgently hospitalized husband: family vacation failed
Richard Gere, 73, had no idea what would transpire for his family when he decided to take his wife Alejandra Silva and kids on a trip to the sea.
As it turned out, his personal journey came to an end beneath a dropper in the hospital. Express.co.uk, a publication, reported this.
Gere planned the vacation to Mexico to mark the birthday of his wife.
Considering that Alejandra turned 40 this year, she is over 30 years younger than her spouse.
Richard started coughing a little even before the trip to the resting spot, but the actor chose not to pay attention to it.
Gere started to feel worse and worse when they got there, though. Coughing spells shook him, and when his temperature climbed, Alejandra urged he be admitted to the hospital.
When Richard arrived at the hospital, the staff there instantly diagnosed him with pneumonia, which is a dangerous condition for anyone to have and is even more so for someone who is 70 years old.
Thankfully, the treatment did not begin too late, and Gere recovered following a course of potent antibiotics. Now, according to Alejandra, he is already getting better.
The actor’s illness wasn’t the only annoyance, though; there were others as well. Evidently, Richard’s illness was contagious, as a result Silva and their kids became ill as well after him.
Nonetheless, Alejandra and the actor’s two sons were all suffering from much less severe conditions.
