Mother of the man who was saved from dying in a glamping gave details of his health: “The damage done to my son is incalculable”

Last Sunday, April 10, the lives of the families of a wedding couple broke in two, after they learned that Deisy Yamile Riaño and Fabián Guillermo Sarmiento were poisoned by gas inhalation, as a result of a failure in the air conditioning of the glamping where they were staying in Manta, Cundinamarca. The poisoning turned off Yamile Riaño's life, while the 39-year-old struggles to recover without serious consequences.

Since Saturday, April 9, Mariela Díaz de Sarmiento, mother of Fabián Guillermo, had not heard from him or his romantic partner, after her son gave her the good news that he and his football team had won the match in which he was serving as a referee. It would not be until the afternoon of April 10 that the mother of the sports coach would know the tragic news, as she herself told the newspaper El Tiempo.

Information known to the national media indicated that, after the sporting event, Sarmiento and his 42-year-old girlfriend stayed in a glamping site located in the municipality of Manta, in Cundinamarca, where they spent Saturday night.

On Sunday, faced with the couple's delay in leaving the lodging, employees of the place went to the glamping, where they were found unconscious. The workers had to break one of the windows in order to help them and, when the authorities arrived at the scene, they were unable to save Deisy Riaño's life . Fabian Sarmiento had to be transferred to the Nueva El Lago Clinic, in Bogotá, due to his critical state of health.

The sports coach spent several days under a reserved prognosis and, according to his mother, according to the policies of the hospital center, the only ones who were able to visit him initially were his daughters. The doctors' prognosis at that time was that, due to the amount of carbon monoxide that the 39-year-old man inhaled, he would suffer serious damage to his health, especially since he lasted days without waking up.

However, Mariela Díaz de Sarmiento told the Bogotá newspaper that, as the days went by, her son woke up and, although he had become too thin and initially it took him moments to recognize his family, he began to show signs of recovering.

This Friday, April 22, Fabian was discharged from the hospital. However, his mother told the Bogotá newspaper that, due to the delicate recovery he will have to undergo, for 15 days he will not be able to have contact with anyone. Likewise, by medical order, for now his family will not be able to tell him that his girlfriend, with whom he shared six years of his life, died.

Meanwhile, the man's mother revealed that they are counseling to file a lawsuit against the glamping that took the life of her daughter-in-law and left her son with health consequences. “The damage done to my son is incalculable,” said Díaz de Sarmiento to the same media outlet, adding that, so far, no investigating body has spoken to them about the case.

For her part, Ángela Rey Sarmiento, Fabián Guillermo's niece, told the magazine Semana that, although they approached glamping with her family to receive an official statement, to date, the administrators of the precinct “have not wanted to put their faces”.
