Still badly affected by the Tour de Suisse crash which almost cost him his life, Movistar rider Juan Mauricio Soler has moved to outpatient treatment and believes that he is making progress in his recovery. “All I can say is that I begin to see light at the end of the tunnel, but I have had difficult days and I have tackled with maturity and with faith.
“I can feed myself, can walk, but always with the help of my wife. The truth is that those things still cause me to feel vertigo,” he told elespectador.com, speaking of progress but also knowing that he has a long way to go.
This one is a complete report. Thanks. That was actually worse than what I thought. He practically was dead, according to the Movistar doctor:mariposa said:http://www.elespectador.com/impreso/especiales/articulo-317196-rehabilitacion-de-un-campeon
All the very best to Mauricio, Patricia and their family.
