Visiting children – According to the doctor, Berlusconi is responding well to therapies

Date:

According to his personal physician, former Prime Minister of Italy Silvio Berlusconi has responded positively to the therapies. He is stable and asks to return home. His five children came to visit on Saturday.

As reported, the former Prime Minister of Italy Silvio Berlusconi has been hospitalized with pneumonia at the San Raffaele Clinic in Milan. He’s been there since Wednesday. The pneumonia is a result of his chronic leukemia. According to the medical journal, more than 80 percent of those affected live ten years or more after diagnosis. More than 20 years ago, the disease ended fatally for half of the patients.

Berlusconi’s condition is better than he had expected, his ombudsman Gianni Letta said after a visit. “I am calm because we are doing our best. Despite a serious illness, the patient is responding well to the therapies,” said the 86-year-old politician’s personal physician. The patient is stable and already wants to go home. Berlusconi was visited by his five children on Saturday.

“Will Make It”
On Friday, he told the editor of the Milanese daily Il Giornale that the situation was difficult, but that he would “make it this time too”. The fact that he responds well to the therapies is important and gives hope, says Forza Italia party leader Paolo Barelli, a party member of the patient.
