Dolores Aveiro, Cristiano Ronaldo’s mother had previously shared this story:
“Before we knew exactly what he had, I was worried because there was the possibility of him giving up playing football. His heart raced a lot when he was not running.
He had to undergo heart surgery at the age of 15 to correct the irregular heartbeats. The treatment went well, and he was back at training again after a few days.
Cristiano was not worried – he did not take the situation very seriously – but I got a big fright. It seems the treatment allowed him to run even faster!”
Ronaldo since then has become the greatest football player ever and we are blessed to have witnessed greatness.
