“Mom, I wanted to tell the story of the exceptional woman you are in these pages, so that your spirit will live on in the hearts of all the people who will read these lines. May they appropriate your wisdom on family, solidarity and well-being together. Through your story, which I tell in this little book, I salute in the same breath the work and love of all the mothers of the earth. Thank you for being what you are, mothers of true hearts, thank you for what we are and for what we will be.”
