The renowned host of the morning show 'Tu Mañana', Alex Medela, opened up and shared one of the most impactful episodes of his life, revealing that surviving a serious accident 25 years ago is, for him, his story of faith.
During his account, Medela recalled that he was run over and suffered severe injuries, including three crushed vertebrae in his spine. Medela recounted that while he was lying on the ground feeling his legs go numb, a mysterious woman appeared beside him to calm him down.
«She told me: 'Calm down, everything will be okay…,' but no one else saw her,» he recalled.
Just seven months after the accident, he managed to walk again, although he was left with sequelae such as a ruptured Achilles tendon and nerve damage.
However, what most caught attention in his statements was the spiritual moment he claims to have experienced right after the accident.
The doctors were blunt with their diagnosis: he should not be standing after the incident, they told him at the time.
The host confessed that he currently has a rod supporting his spine, but his recovery was surprising.
«For me, it was my guardian angel,» he expressed.
Following his story, Medela took the opportunity to leave a clear message: maintaining a positive attitude in the face of any adversity is key to moving forward.
