Kobzon Joseph Davydovich died of illness. Joseph Kobzon about Zadornov: From the very beginning it was a death sentence - both cerebral hemispheres were affected
The disease crept up on Joseph Kobzon 15 years ago. In the spring of 2002, the famous Soviet and Russian pop singer began to have serious health problems. What is Joseph Davydovich Kobzon sick with? And how does the master of the Russian stage feel now?
Kobzon's health
The famous artist learned about the serious illness for the first time in 2002. The diagnosis sounded like a terrible sentence to him. Kobzon's wife Nelly, as well as close friends and family, provided him with tremendous support. The pop singer found the strength to live on and not lose heart.
The People's Artist of the Soviet Union was given a terrible diagnosis - prostate cancer. But the famous singer decided not to give up, but to fight for his life. Throughout the entire period of his illness, Joseph Kobzon courageously overcame the illness, and in between treatment (long courses of chemotherapy) he continued to give concerts and perform at social events.
One can only envy the artist’s patience and willpower. For such a long period of treatment in a Moscow clinic (Iosif Davydovich periodically constantly visits the attending physician), the singer learned every bump on the route from his home to the medical organization. At the same time, the master of the Russian stage does not stop repeating that he will continue to fight for his life day after day.
As it turned out, the People's Artist is one of the few famous personalities who were not afraid to talk about their terrible illness. Kobzon more than once, when giving interviews to the media, openly said that he was an ordinary person who had fun, was sad, was sick and was being treated. Where was Kobzon treated? And what kind of surgery did you undergo?
Operation
Eighty-year-old Russian pop master Joseph Kobzon first turned to German doctors for help in 2005. Then the operation was successful, and after several days the illness stopped bothering the people’s artist at all, and he continued to delight his many millions of fans with his wonderful voice.
In a German clinic, Joseph Davydovich underwent a serious operation to remove the tumor. As it turned out later, specialists from Germany, performing surgical intervention, sharply weakened the famous singer’s immunity, as a result of which pneumonia began, a blood clot formed in the pulmonary vessels, and tissue in the kidneys became inflamed.
Repeated surgery
3 years have passed, and it would seem that everyone has forgotten about Joseph Kobzon’s illness. However, at the end of 2008, the master of Russian pop music had to again turn to medical workers for help. Kobzon’s health deteriorated: the singer was found to have a malignant tumor. The disease began to progress again, so quickly that there was a need for urgent surgical intervention.
The famous Soviet pop singer again went to Germany for treatment by German doctors. But this time the German specialists did something wrong. Upon returning to the capital, Joseph Davydovich began to feel even worse.
Seeing that something was wrong with her husband, Kobzon’s wife, Nelly, convinced the Russian pop master to visit their old friend - the director of the oncology center M. Davydov.
Meter treatment
After examining the Soviet artist, Moscow doctors were horrified. The postoperative sutures that were placed in the German clinic began to separate, resulting in an inflammatory process. The situation was serious enough that emergency measures had to be taken. Joseph Davydovich had to be operated on again.
Doctors removed the stitches and then placed new ones. They also prescribed the master of Russian pop music a strong course of antibiotics to avoid infection. Two days later, Joseph Kobzon’s illness subsided, and the artist, beloved by millions, felt much better.
Loss of consciousness
However, despite the fact that Joseph Davydovich continued to steadfastly fight his illness, in the fall of 2010, the Soviet singer, during a performance in Astana, felt a deterioration in his health while on stage. Joseph Kobzon lost consciousness twice. Medical workers tried to help the artist by performing artificial respiration. According to experts, at that time the cause of fainting was cancer, which led to anemia.
However, according to the People's Artist, he cannot stay in bed for a long time. And he can’t imagine life without a stage with concerts. At home he quickly begins to get bored and cannot find a place for himself. It turns out that performances and fans for the Russian singer are the most powerful cure for all ailments and despondency.
Support from family and friends
Joseph Davydovich, together with his wife Nelly Kobzon, prefers to spend time with his closest people - children and grandchildren. The couple has two wonderful children: Andrei and Natalya, as well as seven grandchildren - five girls and two boys, whom their grandparents love very much and spoil in every possible way.
Joseph Kobzon's son, Andrey, in his youth performed in the Resurrection group as a drummer. However, having matured, he abandoned his passion for music and began to seriously engage in business. Initially, he managed the popular Moscow club “Giusto”, and a little later he became interested in financial transactions in the real estate sector.
Daughter Natasha once served as a press secretary for the popular fashion designer V. Yudashkin. Now she lives in London with her husband (Australian citizen) - lawyer Yu. Rapport. The married couple raises four children, and whenever possible they come to visit their parents.
The great Ukrainian singer, public activist, Honored Artist of the USSR, the Russian Federation and Ukraine, Joseph Kobzon, died in the capital of the Russian Federation. The cause of death was a heart attack. Doctors who arrived at one of the restaurants in the capital of the Russian Federation were unable to save the legendary artist.
The tragedy was reported to the Information Agency by the commentator, the daughter of the deceased, Natalya Iosifovna. “Dad is no more. Only yesterday I flew to Moscow and spent a day with him. Incomprehensible and creepy, sorry,” commentator Natalya Rappoport-Kobzon noted in a comment to the Information Agency.
