Last time I saw Henrique was in August and then he was in the Hospital, very weak but nevertheless he told me something which I think describes well his character and who he was, Even ill, in bed he had an argument with a doctor who did not care enough for other patient who was also in a very bad situation. He was always with the weaker and defenceless side. I do remember as well in other occasion when he was in the Hospital he met a person who did not have a family in Portugal so was very lonely, and when he came out from the hospital Henrique managed to get him a laptop to release his loneliness.
As I told, I did not know him for a long time but I can imagine how was his life, full of generosity. Thank you for this years of friendship and your lessons. I will miss our coffee in Portugal and listening to your long and vibrant talks.

Obrigada.
Vim partilhar consigo esta dor e esta saudade pela partida do nosso amigo Jorge. Ontem vim por aqui visitar este espaço, ver como estava, sei como o Jorge lhe era dedicado e sei que ele gostaria.
Ele era mesmo como o descreve aqui, embora o meu inglês seja fraco percebi como conseguiu transmitir toda a sua generosidade e humor. Quando a sua doença se iniciou e nos dias melhores cheguei a brincar com ele por isso e a compará-lo com o personagem do filme "A vida é Bela" e era assim que o Jorge fazia, ajudando os outros e esqucendo-se muitas vezes de si, sempre com um humor presente para as suas dores.
Deixo os meus desejos de que esteja tudo bem consigo, Voltarei.
Um grande abraço
