He replied that he was very happy, which surprised the journalist, but Luis Enrique just looked at him and read the lesson of life: « My daughter lived with us for nine wonderful years. We have thousands of memories of her. My mom didn’t have Xana’s photos at first.

Because we remember her every day, we talk about her and laugh. And I think Xana still follows us from somewhere. «
