On the other hand, on behalf of hundreds who, like Melba, remember Alexandra, and explained: "Blessings were what I received when I saw the faces of the first students receiving their scholarships to continue their university careers thanks to the ALE scholarships. @fondoalerd. Touching lives as the apple of my eye did and will always do. Thanks to UNIBE @unibeenlinea, for the presentation of the scholarship recipients and thanks to all the other universities that have opened their doors to us in this purpose," she stated.
Added: "We are approaching the end of 2025, the year that for me should never have been. The year I learned the language of pain that does not abandon me. In the last eight months I have known its claws in my heart, its heaviness, which is emptiness at the same time, its smell, its taste, its silence at dawn and during the long sleepless nights. For me, a before and an after. It comforts me to remember that other times life also turned my pages, like when my mother took me to live in Puerto Rico or when I met my husband Alejandro and there the story changed."
