Because I lived a domestic life, so similar, but oh so varied and always so far away, I may perhaps be the fortunate recipient of the largest number of her letters. I needed advice, and she was so kind to give it! It may take me yet another five years, or even more, before I can go through those letters again without breaking in painful sobs, but still when she was alive I used to tell her that her words were so precious to me.... and that one day I'd write a book called "Letters from my Mamãe"... in this day and age of the publishing world, I may publish a blog instead of a book.

Mamãe's last handwritten note
