The 25-year-old influencer, widely recognized for his vibrant TikTok presence and his sports achievements, took to social media to address his concerned followers from his hospital bed.
"Me van a operar, y es que pasó todo tan rápido que aún no lo logro procesar. Quise comentarles porque estar aquí es mi día a día, grabar y leerlos. Quiero comunicárselos porque no voy a estar aquí algunos días, pero estoy seguro de que todo va a salir bien" (Original quote in Spanish: "Me van a operar, y es que pasó todo tan rápido que aún no lo logro procesar.
