Today I am cured. Almost a year ago, I was diagnosed cancer, but today I can say that after different treatments and two operations, I beat it. I played the biggest game of my life, and I won by a landslide.
The first sensations that invaded me when I was diagnosed cancer were fear and uncertainty.
Fear, because the word cancer means very negative consequences. And uncertainty, because I did not know that was going to happen to me what I had inside, what consequences could happen to me, etc …
They were very hard days and weeks, I cried and suffered a lot, and in which mental and physical, but mostly mental fragility, made me fall in an unknown state so far for me.
But thanks to the smiles of my son every morning, the help and support of my incredible wife Ana (she is my real héroe), family and friends (it would be imposible to write all their names!!), I began to see things differently, and normalize my situation facing this personal challenge with the best attitude and biggest bravery.
Within this large group of people, I want to thank:
To Jordi Cryuff and MTA´s Board for its proximity and warmth.
To Paulo and all my staff´s partners for their patience, love and unconditional support from the first to the last day.
To each and every one of the MTA´s staff & players with whom I am sharing the dressing room, for all the love, strength and energy that have given me since they knew my illness.
To all fans and supporters that are part of MTA´s family.
WITHOUT ALL OF YOU I would not have succeeded. THANK YOU from the deepest of my heart.
Today I start to live my life with my family I join again to my rol inside the AFC Fiorentina.
Today the match is over. I win.
See you!
