Recall that on September 15, Vyacheslav Grishechkin, best known for his role as Colonel Starokon in the television series “Soldiers”, died due to heart problems. In recent years, the actor’s heart has been failing. It’s no secret that he was very worried about the death of his second wife Anna, and he literally erased her pain… At the beginning of this year, 61-year-old Grishechkin was already suspected of having suffered a heart attack, and at the beginning of September he became seriously ill.
Grishechkin’s director, Maxim Miller, found the actor in poor condition at his home. At first, Vyacheslav was taken to a private rehabilitation clinic, but two days later he was transferred to a public hospital, as everything turned out to be much more serious and normal intravenous lines would not have helped.

“Vyacheslav Germanovich was taken to the hospital in serious condition, but he could still move on his own and even stand up! Some resuscitations were carried out. But he was already in a regular room,” Maxim told KP.RU. “Literally a couple of days before he died, I talked to the doctors and they told me that he was very weak, that he couldn’t move and that he had bedsores.” But how can a person develop bedsores in five days? I understand if we were talking about a patient who has been lying down for two years without getting up. And then there are special ointments. And in general we have to treat people! I have the distinct feeling that something was overlooked, that the examination and diagnosis were not fully carried out. This all looks like medical malpractice. And this must be solved.”
Maxim Miller also told KP.RU that Vyacheslav Grishechkin’s farewell will take place on September 19 at the Southwestern Theater from 12:00 to 1:00 p.m. Then, at 1:30 p.m., the funeral will take place in the Church of the Archangel Michael, and then the cremation will take place at the Khovanskoye cemetery.
