Valentina Martínez, who is Andrea Legarreta’s cousin, shared through her official Instagram account that her son Mateo made the decision “to give life after his retirement.” They are currently in the process of donating their organs.
In the midst of this difficult time that the family is going through, Valentina expressed that there are aspects that she still cannot understand and that she probably never will after the sudden departure of her eldest son.

In his words: “Oh my God… I still think this is a terrible nightmare and I long to wake up and be able to hug you again… but it’s not. There are situations that the mind and heart simply do not understand and accept…yet your parents and your sibling teach us, as they always did, a great lesson in love for life and acceptance…No doubt you had them better parents and the best little brother anyone could ever dream of.”
