Thaiza met the family through her dog Luna. As an animal rights activist, she helped Josgledys sell some of her belongings and gather the necessary paperwork so Luna could travel.
“She was a victim of fraud. She tried to make some extra money on the Internet, but she fell for a scam on product selling sites and lost her money. When this happened, I told her: Josely, do you want to leave the dog? I can look for someone to adopt him. But she said no. It was important that Luna travel with them.“, says Thaiza.

“It was not a coincidence, anyone who had been on that plane would have lost their life, because it was a plane in poor condition. […] It was not an accidental death, it was a crime. […] Who understands my pain? […] “You will see me fight every day,” said the mother, visibly moved.
