Dolores Aveiro, the mother of Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, went through difficult days and lived very harsh conditions before her son's star in the world of football, but she assumed her responsibility as a full mother, including that she had to work in a job as a cleaning worker with a monthly wage for £ 400 a month in order to save her son Hugo from Drug and alcohol addiction after the family was still struggling with money to bear the expenses of rehabilitating the brother of the Juventus striker.
The Portuguese player's family was going through difficult circumstances after the death of the father at the age of 52 years of alcohol addiction, while his brother Hugo followed in the footsteps of his father and became an addict as well, which caused his departure from football despite his high technical capabilities that could have made him a great player.
According to the British newspaper "The Sun", in light of the family's inability to bear the costs of treating Hugo from alcoholism, his mother was forced to work as a cleaner for a small monthly wage, hoping to save her son at a time when Cristiano moved at the time to the Lisbon team while he was still 11 years old and getting At £ 170.
"I realized I had to do something, I took him to the rehab center, I worked as a janitor for 400 pounds a month and at the same time I had to get a loan," said Dolores, after the situation was complicated in front of her and her son Hugo got out of control.
And she adds: "Despite this, Hugo returned after that to the old way, but this time his brother Cristiano intervened after he reached the age of 16, he was getting a bigger money salary, so he saved the situation by paying more money to treat his brother."
And the Portuguese player's mother added, "There is no doubt that Cristiano's money helped treat Hugo, if he were not a footballer, things would have been different."
Hugo had a very rough childhood, as he left school at the age of 17, worked in factories and paint, and did not stop using drugs that almost killed him before Ronaldo starred in Hugo's life and helped him get out of the addiction quagmire after the efforts made by their mother, which Ronaldo completed .
In addition to the money that the Portuguese star was paying to treat his brother, he gave him a big moral boost as he entered into an agreement with him that his brother would stop being addicted if he wins the Champions League final, which is what happened in 2014 in the match that Real Madrid won over Atlético 4-1 "The Don" scored the fourth goal from a penalty kick, and after the match, Cristiano went to his brother and asked him to implement his part of the agreement.
Hugo's life after the Night of Champions turned upside down, and five years after that day, he offered his brother Cristiano the idea of creating a museum in his name in Madeira, his hometown, displaying his collections and individual and collective awards, and the idea came to Hugo when he visited Ronaldo in Madrid and was shocked by the number of awards and trophies he won. In his room.
The family's endeavors succeeded in helping Hugo stop addiction, and he is now accompanied by a businessman who runs a real estate company, and the two brothers are very close and spend holidays together.
