During conversation with doctor Drauzio Varella, artist shared about rare clinical picture and the death of Sofia, who died after just three days of life
the 29-year-old singer recently participated in the Fantástico program, where she shared her painful experience with preeclampsia. During the conversation with doctor Drauzio Varella, she recalled the tragic loss of her daughter, Sofia, who died after just three days of life. The artist faced a high-risk pregnancy, marked by a rare picture of early preeclampsia, which was complicated with Hellp syndrome, a condition that affects the liver and platelets.
“The impression I have is that there won’t be a day of my life that I won’t cry. They said, ‘In medicine, we choose the mother.’ I said: I go to my limit if possible. And I really kissed death trying to save my daughter, ”shared the singer.
The artist revealed that while the first exams showed positive results, her health quickly deteriorated, culminating in liver failure. Lexa tried to take the pregnancy as much as she could, and the severity of the situation led her to difficult times. It emphasized the need for awareness of preeclampsia, which is one of the main causes of maternal death in Brazil.
“I felt a very strong stomach pain. My headache was no longer, my hand was in a way that was no longer closing… the liver started to go bankrupt and had nowhere to go, neither for me nor for her, ”said the artist.
Preeclampsia is a condition that results from anomalies in the placenta, which compromises blood circulation and may impair the development of the fetus. This complication can evolve into Hellp syndrome, which affects blood clotting and may lead to organ failure.
Prior to the birth of his daughter, Lexa had decided to move away from Carnival for health reasons, which included the cancellation of his block and the resignation of the United Drum Queen of Tijuca. Despite pain and loss, the singer expressed her determination to resume her career and rebuild her life, seeking to “join the pieces of the puzzle.”
