“The police arrived at the scene, and when they found me, I was clamped between two seats. They said it looked as if I tried to get out of the window, but because my leg was very broken, the pain probably prevented me.
The loss of memory is a strange feeling because I was told that during all this I did not sleep and talk to everyone – with the police, with the people and the person who found me. My leg was completely fragmented. They pulled me out and put a tire on it.
I have crushed the femur in four different places. The doctors inserted me in the thigh with four bolts, so that screws and bolts are splicing back. My surgeon said he didn’t want me to put my foot for three months, which is about now and you can see I go. In general, they say that it will take six to 12 months before my leg begins to recover properly.
On the day of the accident, I returned from workout, and in any case I never used drugs in my life. Yes, I love to drink sometimes, but in this situation there were neither drugs nor drinking. This was excluded and confirmed by the police.
After the accident, I was more emotional than ever in my life, but I feel that I got better. Therapy is one of the best things that happened to me. Will I be able to become former Antonio? Yes, 100%. I will play again. This is what I am focused on and the reason I work for six days a week.
