Leticia Costas informed her followers yesterday that her partner, the writer and comedian Miguel López (popularly known as El Hematocrítico), had died. The 47-year-old was well known on the X platform (formerly Twitter) and was dedicated to the world of writing and education.
''Out of immense pain I have to tell you that this afternoon Hematocrítico, my life partner and the most wonderful person who has crossed my path, passed away. Wherever you are right now, THANK YOU,'' the Galician writer wrote, visibly moved.
As confirmed by different media outlets, the creator of humorous projects such as El Hematocrítico de Arte, Drama en el Portal or Los Hermanos Podcast died due to a myocardial infarction that took his family and friends by surprise. The man from A Coruña was with his wife at home when he suffered the episode, and, although the doctors arrived quickly and tried to revive him, they could not do anything.
After the wave of messages of affection and support that he received in a matter of hours, the deceased's partner wanted to dedicate some nice words to him on the social network in which he was so popular and loved.
''Today the world is a very sad place. There is no consolation for the pain of losing such an immense person. Thank you all for the kind words. The wave of affection is brutal. Here she leaves you her look, the most honest and full of love,' stated the woman who is also dedicated to writing.
Hematocrítico was one of the most famous profiles on Elon Musk's social network. Among its 161,000 followers we can find figures from the world of journalism such as Emilio Doménech, communicators and activists such as Inés Hernand, figures from national politics such as Ángela Rodríguez Pam or writers of the caliber of Offreds, Nando López or Salva Gutiérrez Solís.
The author's death has left countless users of the microblogging platform orphaned, who have not hesitated to write beautiful messages to support the family and pay tribute to the deceased.
''The bright side, and today sad, of this network'', ''You know that life is unfair and a huge fucking shit when things like this happen out of nowhere to good people who were just trying to make their days a little better of others'' or ''I'm dying of sadness. Decent people are leaving'' are some of the messages that can be read on the Internet.
