Carta a Una Hija - Delfina Moyano

Mi queridísima Sandrita!!!! GRACIAS por compartir con vos, Nan y tus padres tanto lindos como difíciles momentos, que nos acercaron tanto hasta formar la gran familia que somos hoy.  

Viví tus transplantes y quimioterapias, pero siempre había alegría en tu casa, siempre amor y dedicación tanto de Nan como de Ilene y Jaime. Me quedaran siempre en el recuerdo estos años vividos tan intensamente a veces con alegría inmensa por las buenas noticias y si no eran buenas era lindo ver que salíamos adelante con todo el entorno de la familia y  proyectábamos y sonábamos con viajes a todos lados. Dios nos regalo el viaje a Italia todos juntos y eso si que nunca lo olvidaremos. El otro fue estar el día de tu cumpleaños otra vez todos gozando por verte feliz!! Fue el gran día, el cumpleaños mas lindo que yo he vivido. Nos transmitiste tanta paz y fuerza que solo un ser superior puede hacerlo. Sabes que te quise y te querré como una hija.   

Fueron un ejemplo de vida los dos, ver el amor que se tenían, como se entendían sin palabras, la dedicación de Nan por vos, como me decía tu madre el otro día, Nan puede ya ser medico ya porque el era el que ponía las inyecciones, limpiaba el mejor que nadie los tubitos, hasta era el pillow king, como lo llamaste el otro día porque tu madre y yo no dábamos pie con bola para que estuvieras cómoda y vos divina encima nos pedías perdón por impacientarte y llamamos a tu pillow king y apenas las puso dijiste, Perfect!! 

Sandrita, es impresionante la admiración que despertaste en todos y nos enseñaste que hay que vivir el día a día, cosa que vos aprendiste bien, siempre con alegría y optimismo, alejando tus miedos y aprendiendo a concentrarte en otra cosa para poder vivir mejor. Me encanto que nunca te gusto que te trataran como si estuvieras enferma, días antes de tu partida, estuviste en Buenos Aires y caminamos sin parar, yo me canse y vos siempre bien aunque quizás no fuera así pero nunca lo demostraste. 

Otro regalo de Dios, que pocos días antes del 6 estuvieran en Buenos Aires que siempre te encantó y pudiste ver amigos y familia y así interiormente despedirte de ellos.

Me emociona también pensar en tu última noche cuando nos llamaste a todos al cuarto para despedirte uno por uno siempre con una sonrisa, sabiendo que era el final. Nunca podré olvidar esa noche. También reímos y lloramos todos, ya no importaba nada, solo estar todos juntos. Tu wohooooo! nos dejo perplejos, reímos y aplaudimos tu garra y tu pasión hasta ultimo minuto. 

Te mando el más grande de los besos que te diga lo mucho que significas para mí.

I love U, 

Delfina

Letter to a Daughter – Delfina Moyano 

My dearest Sandrita!!!! THANK YOU for sharing with you, Nan and your parents so many wonderful as difficult moments. They bonded us together to become the big family we are today.  

I've been beside you during your transplants, your chemos and there was always happiness at your home, always love and dedication from Nan as well as from Ilene and Jaime. I will  keep locked in my memory all these years, lived so intensely, sometimes with extreme happiness due to the good news and if they were not that good, it was nice to see how they would bring us all together and start projecting and dreaming about possible trips to come. God grant us with the trip to Italy and that we will never forget. The other gift was to be all together celebrating your birthday, thrilled to see you happy!!! It was the BIG day, the most incredible birthday I ever lived. You gave us the peace and strength that only someone from above can give. You know I loved you and will always love you as a daughter.  

You and Hernan were an example of life, to see the love you had for each other, how you could understand each other without words; the dedication Nan had for you, as we were talking with your mother the other day, Nan could already be a doctor, for he was the one who would put you the injections, he cleaned the tubes better than anyone, he even was the "pillow king", as you called him the other day because your mother and I could not get to put the pillows the way you wanted so that you would feel comfortable and you even thought you had to say sorry for becoming impatient!! When we called your "pillow king" he arranged everything in a minute, you said "Perfect!" 

Sandrita, it is amazing the admiration you woke up on all of us, you taught us to live the day to day, something you learned quite well, always happy and optimistic, setting away your fears and learning to focus in something else to be able to live better. I loved the fact that you never liked people to treat you as if you were sick. Days before you left, we were in BA and we walked non-stop. I was even tired and you were always ready, even though maybe this was not how you felt, you never said it. 

Another gift from God, a couple of days before May 6 you were able to come to Buenos Aires which you always loved and were able to see friends and family and deep inside say good bye to them. 

I have tears in my eyes when I think of your last night, when you called us all to your room because you wanted to say goodbye to each one of us, always with a smile, knowing it was the end. I will never forget that night. We laughed and cried all together, nothing mattered then, we were all together. Your Wohooooooooo! left us wide eyes opened, we laughed and applauded to your guts and passion until the very last minute. 

I send you the biggest of all kisses to tell you how much you mean to me.

Te Quiero.

Delfina
