First symptoms
For nearly two months, my health had been in question.
I had symptoms that might seem trivial, but they didn't go away. On the contrary, they became permanent:
- fever
- Loss of appetite
- a lot of fatigue even for me 😓
Faced with the persistence of these symptoms and increasingly severe episodes of fatigue, we launched research into their origins.
Now things are taking shape and I'm able to communicate with my family, friends and colleagues about my state of health and what we know at this stage of the adventure I'm on.
My enemy
After numerous examinations, samples and consultations, the cause was finally identified: a tumor of the left psoas.
Biopsy
The exact nature of the tumour, and therefore the course of treatment, depends on this examination.
It will help determine whether :
- a lymphoma
- or a sarcoma
That's why I'm hospitalized at the Daniel Hollard Institute (IDH) in Grenoble.
Both are diseases rare.
Much courage in this ordeal! To you and all your family, Piero!
I wish you a speedy recovery!
Piero, I wish you and your family all the strength you need to get through this time. Take good care of yourself and good luck with this ordeal.
Strength and courage, my friend. I wish you a speedy and, above all, complete recovery. Best regards. JL
Cheer up Piero,
I'm thinking of you. Take the time to rest, heal and come back in great shape.
All the best. Peiro. I'm thinking of you. Rest well and come back soon!
Strength and courage for this ordeal, Piero.
I'm sure you'll overcome that bastard with your mental strength and come back to us even stronger.
Best regards
JB

Hi Piero,
I've just heard the news and it's made me really sad. But I know you're a strong person and I'm sure you'll fight through it. I wish you all the best for the future.
Che colpo, caro Piero. Non mollare prima di tutto contiamo sul tuo modo di affrontare la vita e poi la medicina. Ci hai abituati ad un Piero giocoso e gioioso, non ne possiamo fare a meno. Siamo qui con te.
Ciao Piero. A che punto sei? Ti hanno gia operato?
Carissimo Piero,
I've been in shock and really sad ever since I heard you were ill.
I wish you lots of strength and energy to fight because your children, your wife and your friends need you, your good humor and your friendship.
May the force be with you!
I give you a big hug.
Un abbraccio fortissimo.
Fabrizia
