At 75 years of age, the health of Francisca Viveros Barradas, better known in the artistic environment as Paquita la del Barrio, is deteriorating and it is increasingly difficult for her to go on stage.
Recently, fans who came to one of her concerts to hear her sing accompanying Sonora Santanera were perplexed to see that the veteran woman throughout the show remained seated in an armchair.
“I lack a lot of air in my stomach, and then I struggle a little bit to sing. I have my oxygen there in the house of all of youLet’s see what I do,” he said in front of several media outlets when asked about his medical condition.
And it is that, Three years ago, when she had to be admitted to a hospital in Mexico City because she suffered from pneumonia and pulmonary thrombosis, the interpreter was the same again.
Thank you all for your prayers and blessings. I thought I would never be with you again, ”she mentioned at the time.
However, from a few months to date, the legs do not seem to respond to the singer either, because even at the airport she has had to resort to the support of the staff and a wheelchair to be able to be transferred from the area where she checks in to the boarding gate of the planes that it boards to go to the places where it appears inside and outside the country.
“I’m fine, but I have to take care of myself a little. Thank you for accompanying me and loving me because you are well rewarded“said the woman originally from Veracruz who for nearly four decades has remained in the taste of women thanks to the songs she interprets against men.
For the moment and although seated, Paquita la del Barrio has a show scheduled for November 26 in Mexico and a tour of the United States, which he intends to carry out in the first days of the following year.
