Lucía de la Cruz Improves in Hospital With Possible Tuesday Discharge

Doctors will decide after lab cultures identify the bacteria.

Overview

  • The singer, admitted Wednesday, March 25 to Hospital María Auxiliadora’s trauma-shock unit, is now under monitoring in intermediate care.
  • Her manager says she is improving and could be discharged Tuesday if the infection keeps responding to treatment.
  • Her son reports she was not intubated and did not suffer a stroke, and the team is waiting for culture results to guide targeted antibiotics.
  • Lucía told TV host Magaly Medina that her blood sugar topped 400 with a severe urinary infection and fever, and she is following a strict medical plan.
  • Doctors have added dietary measures, including protein-fortified milk, and say they will not release her until she is fully stable, which could delay a return to her judging role on a singing reality show.
