At the age of 6, Dolores lost her mother and was sent to a medical camp, where children were often punished and beaten if they were too naughty or wet the bed. Anyone who violates will have to walk on grass all day in the sun or have their head covered.
Even when Dolores’s father returned and brought her back to family life, the dark and abusive days did not stop. Dolores’s stepmother often beat her husband’s children. Dolores was even once almost taken to a mental hospital because her parents tried to create fake documents, but the doctors did not accept this.
A warm family life only began when she was 18 years old, fell in love with a boy in the neighborhood, Dinis Aveiro, and the couple left with an unsupportive marriage.

While Mr. Dinis Aveiro was still busy on the battlefield, Mrs. Dolores did not relax in taking care of her first two children. When he returned, Dinis Aveiro was no longer the romantic guy he used to be but was immersed in drinking parties with his old comrades.
Having to travel to France to work as a laborer to make a living and support her family, Dolores eventually returned to Madeira and gave birth to her third child. The burden of taking care of a family of 5 members falls heavily on a woman. As a woman, Dolores’s family has never lived a truly full and prosperous life for a single day.
When she was pregnant with Ronaldo, there were times when Mrs. Dolores intended to abort her first son.

It was also Dolores who brought CR7 to Jorge Mendes, the Portuguese super agent who later contributed to raising Ronaldo’s level.
Dolores’s life had many miserable and seemingly hopeless days, but leaving those painful memories behind, now, there is Ronaldo. CR7 always shares joy and always looks to his mother first after victories, taking Dolores to watch his matches by private jet, and also fighting with her in the most difficult times.
