On April 26, Roy Horn († 75) was admitted to Mountain View Hospital in Las Vegas. He had a high fever and respiratory problems. Even then, he was obviously afraid of never leaving the hospital again. The “photo” told Siegfried Fischbacher (80), Roy’s wizard in late April, that Roy feared he “would never get out of there.” Her fears came true.
As Siegfried now told “Bild am Sonntag”, they called him to the clinic to say goodbye to Roy. According to Siegfried, he was not “ready” for this: “But when I saw it through the glass, I felt like I wanted it to happen.”
They would have understood each other wordlessly. In his mind he asked, “Roy, are you okay? Then he nodded. Then he asked, “Do you want to go? Then he gave me the signal with his fingers, yes. And then I said thanks to him. For the fairy tale life we have built together.
Roy had hope until the end
A few days ago, Siegfried hoped that Roy would be home soon. He was treated with the recently approved Ebola remdesivir. But after initial successes, Roy lost the fight.
The autopsy should show why Remdesivir did not help the magician. According to doctors, Remdesivir prevents only some of the problems from which crown patients can die. There is no panacea for Corona yet.
Siegfried: Roy went “in peace, to a world without pain”. And still be with him. I would continue to cover it at dinner, as always: “I’m not alone.” (kes)
