Writer Susanna Tamaro has updated fans on her condition after a serious accident during an episode of sleepwalking.

"Are you surprised I haven't written anything during the holidays? I had already planned a post for December 19th, the birthday of my ancestor Ettore Schmitz—better known as Italo Svevo—but on the night of the 18th I had a terrible accident. In a fit of sleepwalking, I flew down a flight of stairs.

What a shock when I woke up and realized I was flying without knowing how to land. Yet, already when I was in the ambulance, I could only say to myself: how happy I am, how lucky I am because I could have died or remained paralyzed and instead I am still alive, even with a few fractures.

The struggle with pain has taken away all my energy for the thoughts I would have liked to share with you. But I also thought that if I am still here it is also because of your affection and the many things that unite us. Thank you for the beautiful messages you sent me! I think that many of you are spending your days with Chiara and Davide.
I will rise again soon!

In the meantime, I remind you that on Friday the 5th, TV2000 will be rerun "L'Ora solare," filmed at my house with Paola Saluzzi, and that Katia Bernardi's film about me is always available UNRELEASED on RaiReplay. To find it, search for Sciarada, the Rai 5 program.

Belated Christmas and New Year greetings.
