My name is Michele Chiariello I am 45 years old and from Barletta, the city of the great P. Mennea. Multiple sclerosis struck me suddenly at the age of 27 at the time when I was dreaming of becoming a professional soccer player and like a bolt out of the blue it turned my life upside down and undermined my certainties. But my strength was in turning this forced stop into something tangible for others and so from 2021 taking pen and paper I began to write books and donate it all to multiple sclerosis research.

My credo is NEVER GIVE UP and my strength is GOD. Today I am a happy and grateful person to life.
