VIVERE SEMPRE

Ciao a tutti, ho quasi 57 anni e dal Maggio 2020 ho scoperto di avere la LMC. Per fortuna la cura con Imatinib funziona e svolgo una vita normale. Continuo ad andare in bici come faccio da quando avevo 40 anni. Quest’anno cercherò di difendere ancora i colori della maglia della Nazionale Italiana al mondiale specialità GRAVEL (ghiaia) di Ottobre in Veneto, dove sono già qualificato, anche se per problemi legati al lavoro non riesco più ad allenarmi come vorrei. Lo sport è nello specifico la bicicletta è un impegno che mi ha aiutato moltissimo ad affrontare la malattia. Vorrei che passasse questo messaggio.

Hi everyone, I am almost 57 years old and since May 2020 I have discovered that I have CML. Luckily the treatment with imatinib works and I lead a normal life. I continue to ride my bike as I have since I was 40 years old. This year I will try to defend again the colors of the Italian national team at the Gravel world championship in October in Veneto, where I am already qualified, even if due to work-related problems I can no longer train as I would like. Sport and specifically the bicycle is a commitment that has helped me a lot to deal with the disease. I would like this message to pass.
