For this edition of Telethon, the December 4 and 5, 2020, the face that will appear everywhere in France as an ambassador for this event will be that of Marine Rousseau, a 20 year old young woman from Chartres (Eure-et-Loir).
Suffering from girdle myopathy that she was diagnosed three years ago, Marine shows an iron will even if her therapeutic protocol is often an obstacle course.
