Thales Bretas opens up about the 3 years since Paulo Gustavo’s death: ‘Not even time heals’

On the day of the 3rd anniversary of the comedian’s death Paulo Gustavo, Thales Bretas published an emotional text in honor of the father of her children, Romeo It is Gael. In this Saturday’s post, 05/04, the doctor talks about missing his loved one and how he deals with the pain of loss.

“04/05. Even though I try not to be too bothered by this date, a melancholy overtakes me before, during and after it. Although I don’t talk much publicly about grief, it lives inside me, whether I want it or not. Nobody wants to. But the fact is that I learned over these 3 years, is that he is and will always be here”began in the caption of the photo showing her husband with their children.

“This is me now. It changed me forever, like a birth. While birth is the promise of a new world that reveals itself little by little, death is the certainty that a world has ended abruptly and definitively. People ask me how I managed to “get over” or move on after such a loss. And the truth is that you can’t overcome it. Not even time heals. He shows you the need to find yourself again in this absence. In longing. In adapting plans“.

Marks of life!

In the report, Thales talks about continuing with life, dealing with the good things that can happen and the wounds that have been gained over time. It is worth remembering that Paulo Gustavo died on May 4, 2021, after suffering complications caused by Covid-19.

“It’s a fact that, for those who stay, life goes on. And I think, I always thought and I will think that there is a lot to live for while we are given this present. A present that revokes the past, reinvents the future… but reveals surprises, every minute . Good times, very bitter times… some are digested in minutes. Others mark you like scars, and make you a completely different person, forever.”

And he added: “And what is forever? It’s this interim that we have to process all this while our world doesn’t turn off our light either… that’s a little of what I feel today. Tomorrow could be different. But my marks I carry with me. They are part of my identity. Never the whole. But part, in my forever, will always be”.
