Bad experience for Alessia Marcuzzi , saved in extremis by her ex's wife.
The presenter was having dinner in London with several friends including Wilma Faissol and Francesco Facchinetti when a bite went wrong.
“While I was eating, a piece of octopus got stuck in my windpipe - he says -. I couldn't breathe anymore, I got up and started rolling my eyes and asking for help . Paolo and Tommy (that is, the husband and the first child, ed) tried to free me by hitting me on the back, but nothing. Panic".
“I thought of dying - he continues -, I could no longer understand anything, when Wilma took me from behind and squeezed me, giving me a strong blow on the sternum upwards. Suddenly I spat out that big piece that was blocking my breathing and that had remained completely intact, and I resumed swallowing. All this within two minutes in front of all the people in the restaurant who didn't understand what was happening. I turned around, hugged her very tightly and told her moved, 'You saved my life. I'll never forget it'. True, I'll never forget Wilma ”.
“In a few minutes or seconds - he continues - I went from a state of extreme suffering to total liberation and I realized that it could end very badly ... unfortunately sometimes the worst happens. Wilma took the emergency course when studying in America and was ready to do the Heimlich maneuver in seconds. And I promised myself to learn it, because it can save a person's life. This is a great day for me and I am really grateful to this woman ”.
“Alessia made me lose ten years of life,” wrote Faissol. And Facchinetti: “Thanks to Wilma, a situation that could end in tragedy was resolved. I believe in fate and now I believe in it even more because Wilma, who knows how to maneuver, was sitting next to Ale ”.
