“I want to say something to the children who do not look handsome in the mirror: life is beautiful and you have to face it without hiding. I know my players suffered seeing me like this. I read that he was dead and that I have a month to live. Don’t worry, I’m not dying. I am alive”, Gattuso said.
Added that “I have myasthenia, I have suffered from it for ten years and it is the third time it has hit me. This time it was strong, but everything will pass, the eye will be fixed. I see double, it is difficult to stand up, only a madman like me can achieve it ”.
“I don’t like living moments like this, but I accept it because there are worse things in life. I do what I like, this is my life and if I have to decide how to leave, I want it to be where I spent my entire existence: in the field ”, sentenced.
The warrior Gattuso shows that his attitude on the court was only a reflection of his perception of life. The coach continues to fight against myasthenia and between the end of the year parties he is sure already thinking about the next commitment on January 3 against Cagliari for the Serie A.
