According to his wife, actor Heinz Hoenig had to be resuscitated a week and a half ago. How the 72-year-old is doing.
Heinz Hoenig’s health is still serious. His wife Annika Kärsten-Hoenig has now described how serious it is to the magazine “Bunte”. Around a week and a half ago, the actor’s doctors, who has been receiving treatment in a Berlin clinic for months, told her that Hoenig had to be resuscitated.
Shocking moment for Annika Kärsten-Hoenig
The 39-year-old said that she “discovered a defibrillator pad on his chest.” “The doctors then told me that they had to resuscitate my husband during the night.” A moment of shock for the actress and mother of two. Nevertheless, there is also some positive news: Heinz Hoenig is currently “no longer receiving oral ventilation, but can breathe independently via the tracheostomy.” He still has to get used to that. The actor can even walk a few meters with a walker, says Kärsten-Hoenig.
Will Heinz Hoenig have a second operation soon?
The fact that Heinz Hoenig is now breathing independently again is an important step. This is necessary for the life-saving heart operation on the aorta, which the actor has been waiting for for months, as Kärsten-Hoenig recently announced.
In order to be there for her husband, Kärsten-Hoenig temporarily moved into a small apartment in Berlin with her two sons Juliano, three, and Jianni, one year old. The family actually lives in Blankenburg in Saxony-Anhalt. She and Heinz Hoenig have been married since 2019.
