“…In 1948, Cavalcanti married Norma de Almeida Torres, and they had four children: Joaquim, Fernando, Marcos, and Alberto. His wife was a nutritionist, and after his death she preserved his entire medical history for the future, having published two books about him [ 1 , 2 ] . Apart from medicine, Cavalcanti was passionate about piano music, having a great admiration for Beethoven and Chopin, and his wife used to play classical pieces for the family.…”
