Florida, Nov. 12.- It is 2.30 in the morning and one of the most important health centers in the municipality of Florida keeps its doors wide open, in a silent flow of patients and companions who arrive at the appointed time, remain there for more than three hours, and then return home with more or less pain in his body and tranquility in his eyes.
It is late in the morning yes, but the referred institution has never stopped providing a vital service that costs the country every year, and only in this municipality of Florida, about four million pesos to maintain it.
Many of those who come to him, affected by an irreversible Chronic Renal Insufficiency do not know, and many times they are not interested in that important fact, because they know that the Cuban Revolutionary Government and its free, universal and without any distinction Public Health system, gather penny to penny to guarantee them the best possible quality of life.
This occurs in a small and supportive archipelago that resists bending in front of the criminal and genocidal blockade of a powerful and hostile government that causes pain and suffering to our people, but has never defeated the humanism that is shared here equally.
Hemodialysis Room; guarantee of a vital service that does not stop It is 5.30 in the morning and the artificial kidneys of the Hemodialysis Room of the Leopoldo Rey Sampayo Pediatric Hospital in Florida have been active for 24 hours, and will not stop for a moment because both they and Dozens of nurses, doctors and local employees know how much they mean for the 39 patients they receive and survive thanks to the existence of this medical assistance unit.
The hours will pass and the constant entry and exit of a fleet of taxis that carry and return the renal patients from the door of their houses to the entrance of the Florid Hemodialysis Room and vice versa will be maintained, with the maximum of patience and possible understanding by drivers who do not sleep or rest in their essential daily work, amidst shortages of fuel and spare parts.
Hemodialysis Room; guarantee of a vital service that does not stop "Being treated and treating others as human beings" is one of the convictions inscribed by Fidel in his concept of Revolution, and this principle is undoubtedly inscribed, with capital letters and invisible in the Cuban Public Health system performance, and above all, in each space and provision of the open hemodialysis service in the pediatric hospital of Florida for several years.
This is another reason to resist and support the "Homeland or death" that inherited us.
