“He walked behind me”: Florencia Kirchner remembered her father in the networks

“He was walking behind me”, he remembers Florence Kirchner, daughter of former president Néstor Kirchner, who died in October 2010. Through a long text posted on Instagram, the young woman expressed that she feels “sad” and stressed that the memory of her father “strengthens” her.

“He was walking behind me. When its walk left earthly space, the petrified thing made my whole body. A movement can indulge in the gelatinous dance with which it could perhaps have ended on the floors. ‘There is no more father so don’t fall to the ground’, I thought to myself, I thought, I thought to myself, ‘only part, the rest is hard, a way to support yourself. ‘ I greeted a lot of people with exaggerated greetings, whereas what I should have done is let my hair do just like the Medusa, ”Kirchner explains in his social media post.

“I bowed to the babies when they try to manipulate their little heads. Years and years of shaking her head like a baby. When my daughter was born I thought I had an equal by my side, I did not say, made me ashamed “.

“I want to think that I remember the day of those photos and, although I don’t know if it’s true, I tell myself to make up my mind without restraint. I know that in those years I was moving like crazy because, I already wrote: he was walking behind me. It was about turning around and telling him to look at such a thing. I wanted him to see him like me and in my secret, to check that he was following me ”, wrote and reflected on the day the photo was taken: “On the beautiful day imagined, they told us that, always for the photo! -Even if my father does not stop- and me, after this man’s words I guess with his camera I turn around, and my dad walks up to us, he comes. Does anybody else make any pieces of the father there?“

Today that I find myself sad, living in his presence strengthens me, moves me, I am writing. Can’t you see it doesn’t stop? The latter was not a poem, it was the way in which thought was instilled, “he concluded.

Former President and Vice President Cristina Kirchner’s daughter keeps a low profile and uses her Instagram account to share inspiring phrases, books and photographs with her followers. “Having social media gave me a bit of an allergy, but there is room for everyone; there are people going up selfies all day long, and I share literature, that’s what I love, ”he said in a radio interview a year ago.

This is not the first time that the young woman has used the social network to remember her father. In February, next to the image of Kirchner, he wrote: “He has entered my limbo, not grown up – wanting to grow up, and childhood locates me, we see more. Some days I lose my age, I travel to sleep, and that’s okay. “

After returning from Cuba, where she was hospitalized with health problems (post-traumatic stress disorder and lymphedema of the legs), Kirchner published: “They made me sick, yes, but they never made me hate my name.”
