Joël Robert suffers stroke

[Doc]

Taken and translated from FB this morning.

So that to avoid the comments unreal, I inform you that joël had a stroke Thursday morning and has been taken in charge to the intensive care unit of the hospital of montauban. It goes well only the arms and the left leg are met to 50 %. It will be repatriated next week. In the meantime, I ask you not to call him on his gsm, on the club's fixed or on my GSM. If you wish to news, use the mail: [email protected]
Merci.

I have always been a huge fan of the great man and was very sad to see he had suffered an stroke. I've never been one to "chase" sporting superstars but felt moved enough to send an email to the address that Doc put up this morning. Imagine my surprise to get a reply from Joel's wife who assured me is 50% improved. Clearly she reads stuff from down here so if you feel the urge to communicate your best wishes go ahead. It will be much appreciated. J
