On May 11, Flor Marina Gómez, the most important person for Egan Bernal, publicly announced that she was diagnosed with breast cancer: “If God gave me this test, it is because I can overcome it.” Almost two months ago, the mother of the Colombian cyclist began a new stage with the same strength that her son showed at the beginning of the year after almost losing his life in an accident.
In the distance, but always united, Flor and Egan face their recovery by sacrificing one of the most valuable moments in life, mother-child company.. The Ineos capo has been out of Colombia for more than 60 days and this Friday, July 1, he regretted not being able to visit his mother, since he will continue his set-up in European territory.
On Twitter, Bernal confessed that he had planned a trip to our country for the next few hours to share with Flor Marina, however, informed that he stays in the Old Continent with the intention of following the training with his team.
“Sometimes one has to make sacrifices in this life. Tomorrow I was traveling to Colombia to visit my mother who has cancer, she is the most important person for me, but I decided to stay to do a Training Camp with my team in Andorra thinking about the next goals. This is not over,” Egan posted.
