For a week, the emblematic soap opera figure was admitted to the Hogar Dulce Hogar nursing home, owned by Mónica de Calixto.

At 86 years of age, a harsh present is the one faced by the actress Violeta Vidaurre, remembered for her roles in film, theater and soap operas such as "The game of life" , "The tower 10" , "Love at home" , "Adrenalina" , "A todo dar" , "Pampa ilusión" and "El circo de las Montini" , among many others.

Is that the former TV figure suffers from Alzheimer's, as confirmed to T13.cl Marcela de Calixto , administrator of the Hogar Dulce Hogar nursing home , where Vidaurre has been hospitalized  for a week.

"She started with Alzheimer's disease and her family (children and grandchildren) brought her here because her husband is also ill (actor Pedro Villagra ) and she cannot be alone, she has balance problems, she feels a little lost and is dangerous that she is alone at home because she can leave the gas given or leave something plugged in, "says Marcela , who adds that Violeta , within the beginning of her illness, is well and adjusting to her stay in the nursing home, thus denying the version of the actress Soledad Barrientos , who accused in her Facebook account that her colleague was hospitalized against her will and that she is self-defeating.

"What Violeta needs most today is a lot of affection and love, and it is a lie that today she can depend on herself, she cannot work and requires special care. She no longer has the memory to memorize scripts and it only remains to accompany and support her", adds the administrator of Hogar Dulce Hogar, a nursing home owned by the actress and singer Mónica de Calixto , whose sister is the administrator.

Actresses such as Silvia Piñeiro and Myriam Palacios were also in this nursing home before they died . "They were very well cared for and their relatives came to see them, but their colleagues nothing. I would lie to you if I told you that an actor visited them during the time they were here, so I hope that now the actors come to see Violeta and her. support, and not only appear in the media when the camera is on, "says Marcela de Calixto .

The administrator of Hogar Dulce Hogar says  that Violeta Vidaurre "is very funny, she is a very pleasant person and has to get used to being here, which should be within a month. Sometimes she feels a little anguished, because she gets lost , but it is normal in his condition and in the short time he has been here. "
