The body and mind send you signals and throughout my life I have been little to pay attention to them. Until today. I need to stop to take care of myself. To ask myself what I want. If I have it clear. Yes of course not I know better I hope”, continued saying.
It was then that the man from Badalona revealed that his loss is for an indefinite period. “Right now, going back is the last thing on my mind, although it may be what I feel like the most tomorrow.

At that time I worked at noon and he came in early in the afternoon and I was very fond of him. Then we have seen each other on a couple of occasions, I have gone to his play, I wish him the best”, he said.
“I want to think that this withdrawal will help him to produce many things, many dreams that he had pending, he will continue dedicating himself to the theater and perhaps to future television projects, sometimes, it is true that, he says it himself, it is convenient to stop at reflect. I hope you gain energy and it helps you dream,” added the journalist, who wished the best for one of Mediaset’s most prominent presenters, the Atresmedia competition.

Save me has two weeks left on the broadcast, and that is why from the program, his colleagues ask him to come back to say goodbye. “On the 23rd you have to make an effort, I know you’re on leave because you’re not feeling well, but you have to be here because I, all my colleagues and all the people in Spain need you,” Belén Esteban expressed from the set. Without a doubt, Jorge’s absence is one of those that is noticeable and does not go unnoticed.
