From Gilberto Gil to Simony: Preta Gil receives support from her family and friends during her cancer treatment
Preta Gil announced in January this year that she was against bowel cancer. Since then, the artist has received the support of several friends and of his family, which has always been united. The singer discovered the disease after spending six days in hospital with abdominal pain and undergoing treatment for cancer. She has a lot of faith and is supported by famous family and friends. See, below, some messages that the singer received after the diagnosis
Gilberto Gil, the singer’s father, was one of the first to supported her via social media. “Pretinha, since you were born, everything around you has become more beautiful and intense. Your strength has always been an example for all of us. We are with you,” the singer-songwriter wrote.
Francisco Gil, Preta’s son, also used the web to support his mother and reassure his fans: “To all those who send messages, everything will be fine. My mother is fine, we are fine… Always in the light”
Preta’s ex-husband, Otavio Muller, Francisco’s father, shared an old photo in which he hugs the singer and their son. “Amor,” he captioned the post, which garnered more than a thousand rave comments.
Flor Gil, Preta’s niece, always publishes stories accompanied by her aunt, even in the hospital, during treatment. The teenager also writes several motivational messages for the singer. “Everything will be fine, aunt. Everything has already worked out. I love you, I love you very much,” he said in one of the posts.
Bela Gil, sister of Preta and mother of Flor, also exalted singer. “Preta is a mother, daughter, grandmother, sister, friend and our love,” he wrote on Instagram.
At the end of February, during Carnival, a special date for Preta, she was visited by her family and special friends at her home. Carolina Dieckmann, Angélica, Vitão, Bela, Flor and Gilberto Gil were some of the people who attended and celebrated the life of the artist
Simonie too wanted to show solidarity with his colleague Black vest. The former participant of Turma do Balão Mágico said that she was available to the singer whenever she wanted to talk, because she has been diagnosed with cancer, in August of last year. Simony has undergone chemotherapy and radiotherapy sessions, but has already completed treatment and is recovering at home.
Additionally, several celebrities have sent positive feedback to Preta. Among them are: Juliette, Ivete Sangalo, Carlinhos Brown, Gretchen, Giovanna Antonelli, Cleo, Fátima Bernardes, Claudia Raia, Jojo Todynho, Ludmilla, Maisa, Fernanda Souza and Wanessa
Preta is in her fifth round of chemotherapy and has previously said she has no doubts that she will emerge victorious from the treatment as she has a lot of faith and trust in the doctors. She also said that the diagnosis of cancer suffers from a stigma, but today medicine and science are well advanced.
