Overview
- Gelblung was admitted to Sanatorio Mater Dei after a mid‑May descompensation following a recent domestic fall.
- Doctors reported complications including an ankle thrombosis, acute renal failure and an intrahospital infection that required intensive care.
- He remains in the hospital’s ICU but appeared conscious and communicative in a video call with Infama presenters on May 31–June 1.
- Clinicians say his fever has fallen and he is stable for now, but elevated white blood cell counts must improve before any planned surgical intervention can proceed.
- Gelblung’s medical history — two stents placed in April and regular dialysis for chronic kidney problems — and family presence at the bedside add complexity to his care and recovery prospects.
