His wife’s announcement: “He’s been with us for a few weeks”
ROME. Paralympic champion Alex Zanardi has finally returned home, one year after the dramatic crash into a truck during a handbike outing. This was announced by his wife Daniela. «Alex is a fighter but in this year and a half, with Covid, in the hospital and in the clinic we have not been able to stay much. He left the hospital a few weeks ago and is now back with us. We have waited a long time for this to happen and we are very happy that it was possible now, even if in the future there will still be stays in the clinic for rehabilitation ».
The warmth of the family, of its environment, will be essential for recovery. «For a year and a half – continued Daniela – Alex had around him only people with masks and protective devices and visits were very limited. Now we are with Alex all day, he is in his family environment and therefore can return to a minimum to normal. This gives it extra strength. We are very grateful to the medical staff of the clinics where he was treated ».
