We realize that even so long after, people are always mobilized … We manage to do beautiful things: the Grégory Lemarchal house is due to open soon and we are extremely proud of that, these are years of work. It is a disease that affects so many newborns: we must continue to talk about it and mobilize, “says the host of TF1 in the columns of” Telegram “.
And even if Karine Ferri has a busy life today, which she shares between Paris (for work) and Brittany (for the private sector), her fight continues. “We continue the fight for you, for them. Your strength is in us forever,” wrote Karine Ferri recently on her Instagram account. A message accompanied by a photograph of Grégory Lemarchal.
