A day of good and terribly sad news.
Here is the good news.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Pessotto to leave hospital
Juventus team manager Gianluca Pessotto is set to leave the Molinette Hospital in Turin on Tuesday after his dramatic suicide attempt two months ago.
The former Bianconeri player, who hung up his boots in the summer, is said to be recovering quickly and is showing an extraordinary desire to beat his problems.
“The patient’s general condition is excellent and he is also in very good spirits,” read an official note released by the Molinette’s staff.
”Pessotto will be transferred to a private clinic on Tuesday to continue his rehabilitation programme.”
Doctor Marcello De Poli, who has been treating Pessotto over the past month, added that he was impressed with the patient’s attitude.
“He has an extraordinary will,” noted the medic. “Everyone will have a wonderful memory of this man, who proved to be very amiable and friendly.”
The doctors haven’t released any details with regard to the time it will take for the player known as Pessottino to fully recover, but they are hopeful this will happen before Christmas.
Pessotto suffered multiple fractures and was in a critical condition for weeks, after he fell from a window at Juventus headquarters on June 27.
