Franco Di Mare: “I have a tumor due to asbestos. Rai's silence is disgusting”

“I have mesothelioma, a very bad tumor.” Journalist Franco Di Mare explained this to “Che tempo che fa”: He explains that the disease is “related to the presence of asbestos in the air and is transmitted by inhaling asbestos packets without realizing it.”

“This tube that runs across my face is a tube that is connected to an automatic ventilator and allows me to breathe vigorouslyBut it allows me to be here to tell you and talk to you,” he explains, sharing his drama with Fabio Fazio’s viewers.

“I had a wonderful life. The memories I have are memories full of life. I don't want to deal with the idea of ​​death. I want to connect with the idea that there is life. I'm so sorry I'm just finding out about this now. It’s not too late,” emphasizes Franco di Mare.

“I've had a beautiful life, I want to commit to the idea that there is a life, I'm sorry to just find out now. It's not too late, because as Boškov said: the game ends when the referee blows his whistle. My referee hasn’t blown the whistle yet.”

On Rai. “All management groups have disappeared – says Franco Di Mare – not the current one, but the previous one, the one before that. I asked Rai about my service status that I am entitled to and the places I have been so I could try to ask the professional bodies what to do, they have all disappeared. If I can understand, and don't necessarily have to, that there may be legal or union reasons, I understand the lack on a human level less. People I spoke to on a first name basis because I was Rai manager disappeared, they refused to speak to me on the phone. As if I were a beggar. Faced with such an attitude, only one adjective comes to mind: repulsive.”

“The whole Rai disappeared after the disease was discovered.”
