Charles Biétry, the end is near
Now 81 years old, Charles Biétry knows that his days are numbered. “He almost can't speak anymore, we don't understand, he has a very complicated speech problem and has difficulty moving around. He has a youthful eye and he fights…
Really, I am very admiring of his fight because it is a disease from which there is no cure for the moment and that's it.
