Michela G. Volpe, a fantasy name corresponding to the female Italian version of Michael J. Fox, describes her life from a health point of view. All the pathologies that have affected her in the various phases of her life have formed a robust character and an amplified awareness of her body/mind, allowing her to always (or almost) emerge victorious and with self-irony, despite the social and physical barriers that have struck herself and her sick family since birth. Then, one day, as the last slap of that troubled existence, as a further test of the resistance of the armor that has built around, she is diagnosed with a neuro-degenerative disease for which there is still no cure: Parkinson's. Her life seems like an unfortunate film that shows no sign of having a happy ending, with the hope that the paladin of parkinsonians, the actor Michael J. Fox (MJF), notoriously affected by the same disease and for which he created a foundation for medical research, comes back from the future with the ultimate cure.
