In these moments when all Mexico regrets the departure of the famous actress Carmen Salinas placeholder image, many aspects of his professional and family life are the subject of evocation in the media. Salinas passed away on December 9, 2021, at the age of 82.

Six decades of artistic career, in which the world of telenovelas had its brilliant performances, made this woman an icon of the Mexican and Latin American spectacle. Carmelita, despite her great family tragedies, always inspired her to lead a full, peaceful life, and of efforts to achieve her goals. She always showed that protective side of mother and grandmother and never stopped showing the great love she had for her loved ones.

Today that this pillar of woman and professional is no longer, we bring up her facet as a mother.

After marrying the musician Pedro Plascencia Ramírez at the age of 16, in 1956, she wanted to debut as a mother, but because she was very young, her womb could not conceive, suffering five abortions that did not reach more than three months. “I cried a lot,” he said in an interview in 2011 on the Canal de Las Estrellas.

One of the losses that caused her most sadness was that of a 7-month-old baby who was born prematurely and who died minutes later in her arms.

“My seven-month-old baby died, here I had him in my hands alive, in my house. I cut his umbilical cord and said ‘bring me hot water bottles’, but what I didn’t know was that I had to remove the phlegm and I saw him die. When my husband arrived and saw me carrying my dead baby, he took him from my hands, we watched him and the next day he buried him in the pantheon of Dolores ”, he told Telemundo.

Some time later, the mother was able to carry two pregnancies to a happy end, and received her eldest son Pedro Ernesto and her daughter María Eugenia in her hands.

‘Pedrito’ as he was affectionately called, worked like his father as a musician and pianist. He took on the role of head of the household when his father separated from his mother and practically abandoned them.

He was Carmelita’s right hand man, but unfortunately he left this world at 37 years old as a result of lung cancer that invaded his entire body in less than seven months, ceasing to exist in 1994.

“They gave me the news that he was very ill and after seven months he left me. I remember when my son Pedro told me that he could not bear the pain, so he wanted to stop living, “said Carmen Salinas.

His death devastated Carmen, who gave up being a comedian. “When he died, I could no longer do the imitations that I buried together with him. I would start to do an imitation and a lump would get in my throat, my voice would no longer come out and I would start crying. I didn’t want to do them anymore! ”.
