A 76-year-old Ecuadorian woman, who he woke up inside a coffin while his own wake was being helddied Friday after several days in intensive care.
The Ministry of Public Health of Ecuador indicated that Bella Montoya spent several days in the critical care unit at the Martín Icaza General Hospital in the coastal city of Babahoyo, province of Los Ríos (Ecuador), “in critical conditions and with an ischemic cerebrovascular event”, according to the eThe NTN24 news portal.
In the hospital center he received comprehensive medical care and periodic evaluation by hospital specialists. Likewise, “the respective medical audit for this case”, spread that ministry in a statement.
Gilbert Barberán, the woman’s son, told the local media that his mother had died on Friday afternoon.
“Yes, my mom died at 5:00 in the afternoon. We are already watching over her.” She said that she had to do new procedures in the Civil Registry to write down for the second time the death of his mother.
Another of Montoya’s daughters, Zeneida Leal, recounted that “the doctor said that my mother was ill, she was very delicate. He said that she was suffering from renal insufficiency. It could not be saved because everything was getting complicated and he went into respiratory arrest.
Last Friday, June 9, Montoya had been pronounced dead in the Martín Icaza public sanatorium in the coastal town of Babahoyo, in southwestern Ecuador.
Five hours had passed since his own wake, when the woman woke up inside her coffin. A video released on the Twitter network shows Bella Montoya in her already open coffin and breathing with difficulty after the prolonged confinement, while two men assist her.
Montoya was admitted to that hospital “with a presumptive diagnosis of cerebrovascular accident and he had a cardiorespiratory arrest without responding to the resuscitation maneuvers, for which the doctor on duty managed his death,” the Ecuadorian Ministry of Health said in a statement on Sunday.
