"Operate on my son, he's getting worse and worse, he eats little and breathes badly." The appeal is from Sara Fadda, a mother from Carbonia who for months has not been able to have her 4 and a half year old son operated on for the removal of the adenoids .
In May the problem was diagnosed, the doctors suggested a re-consultation after the summer. In October, during a visit to the CTO of Iglesias, a deterioration was found: " They told me to proceed with the surgery and a few days later I was contacted again for the pre-operation routine tests ".
Everything seemed ready, «but at the end they told me that the shortage of anesthesiologists had caused the postponement of the operation . Now, in mid-January, the phone still doesn't ring and my son continues to get worse ».
The woman did not give up, she turned to the Monserrato Polyclinic and the Santissima Trinità of Cagliari, here they confirmed the need for an operation but - the problem is always the same - there is a lack of anesthesiologists. Same situation in Olbia and in Tempio, so the family is increasingly worried.
« My baby breathes with difficulty, he only eats milk and biscuits from the bottle, he sleeps badly, he often goes into apnea, as soon as he starts running he has to stop because he is out of breath . He no longer attends nursery school, he doesn't see his classmates and his immune defenses are low, I pray for a call".
