He rose to prominence in Italy after being the victim of a tragic event on the night of February 2nd to 3rd, 2019 in Rome, through a personnel swap that resulted in him dying of his legs at just 20 years old after suffering a stroke could no longer use pistol. We met him after the accident because of his willpower, which led him to speak about disability on many shows, including Big Brother Vip, where he was the first contestant in a wheelchair on the last installment of the reality show. We are talking about Manuel Bortuzzo, the swimmer of Triestine origin, who had to be reborn even before he could start his life and who, since he can no longer walk, is running a campaign of sensitivity for people with disabilities like himself, a living example that life too can be lived to the fullest without legs. Today, after a period away from the limelight and some controversy against him, Manuel has come back into the conversation, but this time because of his health condition. In fact, the 24-year-old alarmed everyone by posting a very ambiguous story on Instagram that worried everyone.
In fact, Manuel posted a shot showing him in what appears to be a hospital room, wearing a face mask and his usual beanie, and wrote, “Life can change quickly, don’t put off until tomorrow what you could do today”.
Words that immediately aroused great concern about his current state of health, which, according to this hymn to Manuel’s life, could have deteriorated.
In fact, many on social media are wondering what happened to Manuel and wishing him a speedy recovery, but for now we just have to wait for Bortuzzo himself, if he wishes, to clarify how he is doing and what difficulties he is facing he comes face this time.
