RADAMEL FALCAO’S family were rushed to hospital after suffering carbon monoxide poisoning. The striker’s wife, Lorelei Tarón, and his five children, Dominique, Desirée, Annette, Jedidiah, and Heaven, as well as his in-laws, were all treated at hospital.
Falcao’s wife, Lorelei, explained that turning on the water heater for their swimming pool caused a gas leak, leading her and her family to become dizzy. Their children quickly became ill as they began to sense a very strong smell filling the house.
Lorelei explained: “A little scare. Thank you for your messages and good wishes, we are fine, thank God. “We turned on a water heater that had no escape route and the carbon monoxide poisoned us all.
“I was exercising with Jedi and my dad, downstairs. Time passed and I was super dizzy, but I thought it was the altitude. Jedi went up with my dad to the top, where the girls were with my mum. “I picked him [Jedi] up and sat in the girls’ room. Jedi fell asleep, which I thought was very strange, and I started to feel sleepy too and fell asleep.
“The lady who helps us around the house started shouting and telling us to get out quickly. “We went out because the smell was unbearable. Annette was crying because she felt sick, Jedi was asleep and I was seeing the world upside down.”
