"I'm writing these lines, bawling my eyes out," she wrote. In the text, she explained to all her viewers how she's been feeling over the past few weeks, after learning she would be leaving for another country.
And, as the actress herself asserts, her family's health hasn't been at its best in recent days, as her husband, Marc Clotet, has fallen ill. "The flu, some other viruses, and some bacteria have sneaked into the house and left Marc with pneumonia (now under control) and the kids knocked out." It's no surprise, then, that she's currently at her worst.
However, she faces this project with great enthusiasm and the intention of giving her all. But that doesn't mean she can't help but feel sad about leaving her family behind, especially when their health isn't at its best. "We could say that, even though I know they're in the best hands, I'm leaving with a good dose of guilt in my suitcase, but this time, I'm also taking a good dose of excitement. I'm leaving for three weeks to do a project that will keep you up at night!" said the actress, recognized for her role in The Serrano like Teté.

The young woman has confessed that it wasn't easy accepting the project, as moving away from her children didn't seem easy. However, as she also emphasized in the text, she wants to convey a very clear message about motherhood. "It's the importance of not forgetting yourself, your needs, your dreams, taking care of yourself, and not stopping doing (if possible, of course) things that make you happy because, in doing so, they are happy too," the actress expressed.
Thus, the young woman concluded her caption, making it clear that she's leaving to work to continue making her dreams come true. Before finishing the message, she didn't forget to thank all the people who have supported her: "My family and friends who support me unconditionally in every decision I make." It will undoubtedly be a great experience for Sánchez, and in a few weeks she will return home to her family with a backpack full of anecdotes.
