On September 1, 2020, it rained torrentially overnight.

Carlos's tongue turned dark and Ana María got scared.

He called the emergency room and, as the ambulance was slow to arrive, she took him to the Churruca hospital herself.

They put him in the wheelchair, put the oxygen mask on him.

"And bye, I didn't see him anymore," he remembers.

Almost a year later, a truck that was transporting the President through the Buenos Aires town of San Martín passed through the door of the premises that Ana María, retired, has had for more than 20 years.

She went out onto the sidewalk, looked him in the eye as she waved through the window and

made the famous "fuck you" gesture

, with her hand closed and her middle finger pointing to the sky.

"I love you very much," was the answer she received and she ironically retorted:

"Yes, me too."

Everything happened to the laughter and surprise of their neighbors.

Ana María, the retiree who made Alberto Fernández "fuck you"

The video of this scene went viral on the networks and Ana María recounted her feelings in detail, interviewed by Radio Miter.

I did it with a pain of the soul and heart

... From my pain I made that expression towards the president.

I did not want to disrespect her, it was my pain,

"she explained over and over again when they had just introduced her on the program.

"I hospitalized my husband on September 1, I didn't see him again. On the 10th he passed away without my being able to communicate with him," he added with a clear tone of pain, indignation and disbelief at what he had to go through.

Today she tries to cope with her loss by doing therapy.

"I decided that we had to take care of ourselves, as the President told us that everyone should do. I did not let my children enter, who were desperate, or my grandchildren and you did the shopping every fortnight," he recalled about the first months quarantine.

Ana María left her premises for a long time and thanks "God" that she was able to survive because she defines herself "as a working woman."

“I was a servant and I am not ashamed to say so.

I open the store at 8:45 a.m. every day and go home at 9 p.m.

My feet hurt and I can't stand up all day,

”he says.

That night of September 1, Ana María was scared, she admitted Carlos Alberto, her husband, who was a police officer

and presidential custodian.

He never saw it again.

"At night I can't sleep because I think about

how he suffered alone,

" he confesses before getting angry at the photos and videos at the Quinta de Olivos on the birthday of the First Lady, Fabiola Yañez.

"That and also the wake of (Diego) Maradona ... yes, he was a good player ... But Maradona was Maradona and they held a crazy wake and I couldn't see my husband," she said.

"Maradona was only human and my husband was not?" She asked angrily and with a broken voice.

Carlos Alberto died on September 10 and four days later he was returned to Ana María

"in a ballot box

.

"

“For me, he did not die.

I tell my psychologist that I am crazy because for me he just left ”.

The professional, recounted the retiree, explained that she feels that way because, among other processes that she could not go through,

she could not "go through the grief

.

"

“I did it from the pain,” Ana María repeats over and over again.
