Alexander Blessin has just had a very difficult six months. The Union is doing wonderfully, but he has had to endure a lot in private, since his wife suffered a spinal cord infarction.

Alexander Blessin is a true family man. When this situation occurred, the Union Saint-Gilloise coach wanted to stop everything, to help his wife, who lives with their three children 600 kilometers from Parc Duden, in Germany.

“My wife told me that we have invested so much in our career. If we stop now, I will feel like we are losing the battle, that we are giving up. She didn’t want me to come home,” says Blessin in the columns of the Nieuwsblad.

“She doesn’t want me to give this image to the children. What could I say? If I had stopped, we would have fought for twelve years. For nothing” continues the Unionist T1.

Since then, things have gradually improved. “I feel like we found a good doctor. From day one he explained to us how everything was going to work out. It’s not a muscle injury or a bone fracture, it’s a question of nerves and They need time to recover.”

“We are on the right track, but we need patience. Certain muscles are stimulated, so that the sensation returns. She received special treatment for this” concluded Alexander Blessin.
