When Gené told me that a lawyer wanted my case... 00:52:54.576 --> 00:52:57.826 there was something that influenced my decision... 00:52:57.930 --> 00:53:02.111 and it was the fact that the lawyer suffered a degenerative disease 00:53:02.216 --> 00:53:06.657 I thought that only someone in that condition could really understand mine 00:53:06.761 --> 00:53:08.318 And shared my hell 00:53:08.422 --> 00:53:15.695 Now I know that living in that hell is sometimes worth it, if one gets to meet people like you 00:53:18.222 --> 00:53:21.446 Is worth it to have shared a cigarette with them... 00:53:21.551 --> 00:53:24.099 or, like right now, caressing them even if its just... 00:53:24.203 --> 00:53:25.933 by writing some foolishness like this 00:53:26.037 --> 00:53:29.070 And talking about foolishness, I'm correcting my writings 00:53:29.174 --> 00:53:31.843 With the hope that you will come soon and give me a hand 00:53:31.948 --> 00:53:36.409 For now, my nephew Javi is helping me by copying them on his computer 00:53:36.514 --> 00:53:39.773 For the rest, life continues just the same, you know 00:53:39.877 --> 00:53:44.261 Manuela kept the whole month covering me so next year doesn't catch me off guard 00:53:44.365 --> 00:53:47.144 Javi keeps fighting with his grandpa and sometimes 00:53:47.248 --> 00:53:50.366 I make up little chores so they spend more time together 00:53:50.470 --> 00:53:55.313 This month some friends came to visit. Some of them have been doing it for 25 years... 00:53:55.417 --> 00:53:57.607 and that keeps surprising me 00:53:57.836 --> 00:54:00.573 They enjoy telling me their stories 00:54:01.237 --> 00:54:03.645 Do you remember Rosa?

Just like before we are born. Nothing 01:52:12.613 --> 01:52:14.881 How can you be so sure Ramon? 01:52:15.031 --> 01:52:16.446 No one knows that 01:52:16.550 --> 01:52:18.248 No I'm not sure. 01:52:18.352 --> 01:52:22.185 Is just a feeling. Is like when my father... 01:52:22.289 --> 01:52:27.977 looks at the sky and says 'Tomorrow is going to rain' and it does 01:52:29.344 --> 01:52:31.488 Is a feeling. 01:52:35.026 --> 01:52:40.735 But there's something you shouldn't forget.
