Eloah, just six months old, is hospitalized in the United States with bronchiolitis
After more than a year away from social media, Maíra Cardi reappeared this Sunday the 26th, to share a delicate moment lived with her family. The influencer used Instagram to ask for prayers for her youngest daughter, Eloah, just six months old, who is hospitalized in the United States.
According to Maíra, the baby was diagnosed with bronchiolitis, one viral infection that affects the small airways and is common in children under two years of age. Amidst the concern, the businesswoman also highlighted the challenge of facing the situation far from Brazil and her support network.
In an emotional report, Maíra explained that she decided to break the silence on social media precisely because of the gravity of the moment. The influencer stated that she had already resorted to faith in previous situations involving her eldest daughter and that, again, she sought spiritual support from her followers.
“I know I haven’t been here for over a year, but every time I’ve come to ask for prayer, I’ve been answered,” he said. In her outburst, she highlighted the anguish of being in another country, far from family, trusted doctors and even her own language, which intensifies the feeling of vulnerability in the face of the baby’s health condition.

Recent history and health concerns
Concern about the youngest daughter’s health is not new. Days before admission, Maíra had already reported that Eloah had skin allergies and, after tests, heavy metals were identified in the baby’s body, which had already raised an alarm in the family.
The sequence of health problems contributed to the emotional exhaustion of the influencer, who revealed that she was shaken by the situation. In a moment of sincerity, she said that she got into an argument with her husband, Thiago Nigro, due to the accumulated tension.
