In the preview that took place last Monday in Burgos organized by AFAEM which was also attended by the Director of Communication of Biogen Idec, Diego made the following statements to the press "Multiple sclerosis is a disease that is not understood. You try to have a normal life, but she decides at her whim. I have been living with her for 16 for years, at first I was discouraged from exercising and the expectations they gave me were not good, but I always fought for what I wanted to do: live a full life together with my family and doing sports. The beginning was hard, the disease is hidden, perhaps as a way to protect the people you love, but sport and constant struggle has helped me to move forward. My motto is: If you fall, you get up"
"For me living with her is a simile with him triathlon, maybe, if you want to move forward, you have to pedal, life is the same, you have to make an effort if you want to move forward. You have to have courage, fight and never give up, life is like that "
