The Christmas It is one of the times that children enjoy the most, as it is the perfect occasion to ask for the toys they most yearn for as gifts. However, a very particular situation occurred in Argentina.
Joaquin MonierThe 11-year-old wrote an emotional letter to Santa Claus asking for the gift he most desires in his life: health for his mother, who suffers from cancer.
The first letter
This is not the first time that the little one asks for this gift, since he has been asking Santa Claus not to take his relative from him since 2018, when the woman was diagnosed with the disease.
On that occasion, he wrote: “I just want to ask you not to bring me toys, but to give my mother more life so that she can see me grow. A kiss.”
What did your mother say?
Maira Barrera He decided to tell him immediately about his clinical picture when he heard the news: “He is my first son, we have a lot of confidence and I never lied to him. When I was diagnosed, I decided to talk about it, because he had already experienced this situation with his grandmother, who died Of cancer”.
The idea was “to prepare him so that he knows that I had to study and that there were going to be days when I was not going to feel well.”
“He has a giant heart”
A few days before the Christmas celebration, Maira asked “Joaco” and his younger brothers to write a letter to Santa Claus.
This time, the little boy asked for a bike as a gift, but the priority was always his mother’s health. The letter was later read by the woman herself, who could not hide her emotion.
“I came across something so strong that I had no words at the time. It is the love of my life, always think of me, always think of the restHe has a giant heart, ”said Maira.
“All he wants is for him to give me more life. They are those details that one does not expect and they surprise you, I cried everything already we are fighting this disease together, at the same time”, He added.
What did the new letter say?
As reported by the Argentine press, Joaquín wrote to Santa Claus that “some children say you don’t exist, but I hope you do, because if you didn’t, you would never have brought me gifts and I just want to ask you to give my mom more health to live“.
“She has cancer, like my grandmother who is in heaven, and the truth is that I want to have her for much longer. I know that at the age of 9 I ask you for this gift and you always fulfill it, mother is with me and my brothers, I am super happy and grateful, “he added.
“I would like to have a bicycle, but if you can’t, I’ll be satisfied with what you send me if you tell me that my mother is healthy,” the letter concludes.
