Vladimir Luxuria spoke, not without emotion, of his desire to adopt a child. He was hosted by Silvia Toffanin at “Verissimo”.
A desire born after participating in the Island of the famous. The former deputy wins the reality show and donated 50% of the amount won to Unicef, "because she takes care of less fortunate children".
Then Luxuria decided to personally go to Africa. To be precise in Mozambique.
“I did it to help orphaned children of everything and everyone. There are often families who have been devastated by the scourge of AIDS ”. There, “among many”, he met Enock, an eight-year-old boy.
“I have never thought or desired to have children in my life, but I went there to Africa and met him. Beautiful, with curly hair and bits of straw in the middle of the hair ".
In front of that child, her desire for motherhood was born: “He showed me how he grinded flour, jumped and ran to show me how good he was”. Then, at the end of the visit, as he was leaving by bus, he saw in the rearview mirror "Enock's eyes permeated by infinite sadness".
"There is no system of measurement to say how sad he was, I realized he thought I had gone there to adopt him, and instead I was abandoning him to his fate. Something emerged inside me, I was locked in a hotel crying all the time , because if the law had allowed me I wouldn't have thought for a moment about adopting it. But I can't because I'm transsexual ".
“It is not a question - concludes Luxuria - of being straight, gay or trans, it is a question of having or not having a heart. That child needed protection and I couldn't take him with me, but I continued to take care of him and take an interest in his life from afar ”.
