In the province of Santa Fe, a nurse, Libertad Rondán, had been taking care of Benito Ojeda, who made a living selling lottery tickets, for the past ten years. On May 2, however, 65-year-old Benito died, but Libertad decided to continue to take care of him.
Rumor has it that the nurse kept rinsing him with water and aloe to eliminate the disgusting smell of rotten flesh, according to Argentine media.
The bizarre situation ended when a neighbor paid them a visit. Only then did the nurse inform him about Benito’s death prompting the neighbor decided it was time to call 911.
The nurse later told the police that when she realized that Benito had died, she immediately informed his family, but no one came for him even after two weeks.
Libertad said in a statement that she will continue to look after and take care of people because it is her calling.
The woman will have to undergo a thorough medical examination as the police said that this is their first time dealing with such an unusual case.
