Christian Petersen Shares Recovery Milestones and Returns to Light Work After Near-Fatal Lanín Collapse

In new posts and an interview, the chef credits family support and medical teams as he recuperates at home and awaits tests to determine what triggered his multiorgan failure.

Overview

  • Petersen says he is improving day by day and has resumed work from home with limited in‑person visits, stressing he is taking things slowly.
  • A new Instagram story highlights his wife's pilates routine with the message "En familia todo es más fácil," underscoring the role of his inner circle in his recovery.
  • He is tracking his rehabilitation with a smartwatch showing roughly 75 beats per minute and is embracing a slower pace, writing, "ir poco a poco."
  • In a fresh interview, he revealed that at one point relatives were told to say goodbye and he expressed gratitude to rescue guides and teams in Junín, San Martín de los Andes, and Hospital Alemán.
  • The underlying trigger remains under study; he mentioned learning of a preexisting virus and some pneumonia, and he was discharged in early January after being airlifted to Buenos Aires for higher-complexity care.
