A mi amigo Enrique Reig

Resum

In this fateful month of August we have lost two great figures in the interventional treatment of pain: Menno Sluijter and Enrique Reig. Both have been great figures in the world of science, although for me Enrique has represented all the values that I hold today, not only as a scientist but also as a person, as a friend, as a putative father. I think I speak for everyone if I say that he is one of the most controversial figures in the world of pain treatment, but that almost all of us have learned something from him. A man of strong convictions, strong character and an incredible personality, who managed to make pain treatment not just a "tryptizol 0-0-1", but who elevated pain treatment to a higher level and opened the way to something new, with new techniques and new management of therapy, with an exclusive dedication to the treatment of patients and the relief of pain. Thank you for so much Enrique! But you will never go away, you will always be by my side. “When you walk through the storm, keep your head held high, and don't be afraid of the dark, at the end of a storm there is a golden sky.”
