The national senator for Córdoba louis judge He took a few minutes away from the political discussion and talked regarding the relationship he has with his daughter Milagros (21), who suffers from cerebral palsy. “It’s a campfire in winter”Judge said through tears.
During a new edition of +interview Along with Luis Novaresio, the legislator was asked regarding how he felt when he received the diagnosis regarding his daughter: “it was devastating. We thought she was deaf. After she was blind. Until they told us that she had hypoxia. Today we know what cerebral palsy is”.
In this regard, he admitted that “the first thing you do when you find out regarding something like this is to blame everyone” and limited: “You get mad at God. You say ‘the fucking hell, with so much load going around…’ because it’s not an easy thing. When you have a different child, you carry your whole life with that”.
“What was taken from you at some point, time gives back to you. He gives you another wood. To me, for example, he has made me an oak. You can come and you are not going to move my convictions ”, Judge highlighted and added: “What at some point was ‘Why me?’ now it’s a ‘Thank God’”.
“You live with someone who has no evil. Milagros is the most demanding person in the world. But he only asks you for one thing: that you give him love.”
“She also needs attention, that you play with her, look at her, speak to her, interpret her guttural sounds to see what she means. But there is no more love than her”, He stressed excitedly and completed: “God gave me someone who loves me every day. It’s like a campfire in the winter”.
In this context, the Judge denounced that “There are people who have told me many times that I use my pain for profit or speculation”. “It happened to me in 2007. A massive march was set up following I lost the election in Córdoba and I had Milagros on top of me. And a journalist said ‘there is the Judge, trying to pity his daughter’. Since that day, we said with my wife ‘he doesn’t go out anymore’he recalled.
“People are screwed and when they want to hurt you they hurt you”Judge added. However, he said that “that’s not why I’m going to have a problem showing what I feel and crying if I want to cry.”
Although he revealed “not being afraid of dying”, he did emphasize not wanting to “leave this world without resolving some issues before”. “I need to know how Agustina and Martín -her other children- are going to take care of Milagros, how they are going to take care of her. I’m afraid of that nothing else, the day I’m not there for her”.
When talking regarding his other three children, Judge stated: “I have the problem of not knowing what to do so that my children do not leave the country.” “I always say to my wife: ‘How bad would we talk as parents if the kids decide to leave,'” he said.
“There the boys see more expectations as a waiter in Italy or Spain than working in a law firm”, The Cordovan was honest regarding the situation that Agustina and Martín are going through -two of their children who work as lawyers-.
He also revealed an advantage that Martín told him following visiting the Netherlands. “He told me that, although they don’t fill up with gold there, you can grab the bike at four in the morning and go to work without problems. Here they kill you, either for a cell phone or a pair of shoes”.
“My parents explained to me that I was going to be better than them because I had gone to college, because they might give me opportunities, because being smart I would know how to manage myself, because I would have a better income. Today that explanation with my children is not enough for me“, lament.
