They have corrected an arrhythmia, and my heart is beating in rhythm once again,&#8221; the club chief announced, providing a reassuring update on his health to the Blaugrana faithful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Laporta expressed his deep gratitude &#8220;to the exceptional doctors, nurses, and medical staff at the Barcelona Hospital, led by Dr Jordi Morillas,&#8221; for their dedicated care. &#8220;They did an outstanding job. Beyond their expertise and profound knowledge, their approach was kind, understanding, and full of patience and warmth, upholding the highest standards of medicine and the Hippocratic oath,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;It is further proof that here in Barcelona and Catalonia we deliver top-tier, high-quality work. I am especially proud of the FC Barcelona medical services, headed by Dr Xavier Corbella, and my Chief of Staff, Manana Giorgadze, who coordinated everything with such efficiency,&#8221; he continued.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;I also want to thank Dr Valenti Fuster and his entire Mount Sinai team for the sound advice that brought me peace of mind, and Dr Brugada for recommending the procedure to correct the arrhythmia. Finally, I want to thank my children, siblings, family, and friends for all their support and companionship. Thank you all so much, truly from the bottom of my heart.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Joan Laporta has taken to social media to confirm he ha [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":2360,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2359","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2359"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2361,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2359\/revisions\/2361"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2360"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2359"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2359"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dxtynews.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2359"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
