To tell how he feels now he wanted to quote a piece by Simple Minds from the period when he was still a deejay on the radio. “I’m so alive and kicking that they sent me home” he commented with a smile, abandoning the light-hearted tone to describe what he experienced. “I saw … I saw the true story of the coronavirus, the one with a capital C – he said -. Everyone hopes it will be a walk. Meanwhile everyone hopes not to take it, then when they take it they hope it is in one of those light forms that you get along with a bit of tachipirina. When you realize that the home system is not enough then you have to go to those who have practiced. That is to say those guys who have made it on the field in recent months because it was not written nowhere how to do it. You must trust and you must not be scared “.
What happened to him, who eventually went to hospital for 13 days (“even though they called the last three” weaning “. In the sense that one must learn to return to eat, move and breathe as in normal life” ). In those 13 days there were particularly hard times. Word had spread last week that he had been in intensive care. Voice denied, even if it was not very far from the intensive care unit … “I was in the anteroom of the intensive care unit, in the true sense of the word – he continued -. They gave me a small room that was halfway between the normal ward and the Intensive. In order not to scare me too much they gave it to me but there was a glass door and I could see everything that happened in the intensive. Thank God it took me 36 hours there. In those 36 hours I reviewed everything that is state, all that is and I think all that will be “. In that period, in addition to the treatment of cortisone and antibiotics, it was also necessary to use the cipap ventilator helmet.
“I was lucky enough to be in the Humanitas Covid center, set up in two months this summer in anticipation of the tsunami that would arrive in the autumn – he continued describing his stay -. But you are still in a high vacuum room, those who go around are all the same because you don’t recognize them unless you write strange things on their shirts. You have to arm yourself with great patience “. He came out with about ten kilos less and a different look at the future. And speaking of the future, the work will come slowly, now we need to think about the affections. “What I had to do about ‘Free fall I did’. So, if I negativize myself as I hope, I will return for the final of ‘Tu si que vales’ – he says -. Then I will enjoy the Christmas holidays and the granddaughter arriving“.
