When I begin to think about work in the comics field many people told me that i was nuts, that I was wasting my time dreaming about it, just one person give me her inconditional support: my mum.
She spent many days and nights with me while i did it sample after sample trying to break into the business, she always it had the right words for confort me and that i dont quit trying to pursue my dream, she give me her support so economical like loving and share my joyness when finally i reach my goal.

Nine years ago she suffered a car accident, in that accident we lost my father and she was let with wounds in his legs that keep hospitalized for more that a year, in all that time my mum just have a regret: she couldn´t be in the funeral of my dad and bury him, just that, she never complain about her situation, about the surgeries and the pain, about the rehabilitation therapy, and when finally she can walk again the first place that she go was my dad's tomb.

Fours years ago we have another downside, she was diagnosticated with cancer in the stomach, my sisters and me feel so devastated with the news but my mum confront this situation with enormous courage, she go trough a surgery and chemotherapy and radiotherahy sessions for a year, and again never complaint about her situation.
The cancer dissapear for almost 3 years but unfortunaly go back and this time there not go anything to do, so my mum take the decision of go back to her house for spent her last days with us.

Finally last week, in thursday 19, to the 9:45 P.M., she let this world, the pain and suffering finish for she and still in the end she have words of wisdom fo me and my sisters. So I write this for honoring her memories and like a way to make that the pain I feel go away.
Mum wherever you are I just have to say you THANKS FOR ALL!!!
You was my inspiration and my support, god bless you for that always.
