No exceptions, pediatricians aren't even there for children who suffer more than others. In a town in the Oristano area there is a mother who is experiencing a drama within a drama, an endless nightmare that she herself has decided to tell with the hope that the Oristano Local Health Authority will intervene immediately.
«Like many children, my 5-year-old has no longer had a pediatrician since the beginning of March due to his move - the mother vents - For me, however, the situation is very different: my child is ill, he has leukemia. The doctor is therefore even more essential. He is now on maintenance therapy. It's true that I can get the prescriptions via email from Microcitemico where my son has been treated since he was three years old, but he often has to be visited because he's not well. For example, last weekend he had a high fever, and today I was forced to contact a paid pediatrician. It's not right".
Last week the woman went to the ASL offices in via Carducci, where the choice of doctor is made: «I asked the operator to find me a solution, to ask one of the few pediatricians in the province to add them to their list of patients my son, given the particular case. However, I was told that no doctor accepted it. They didn't explain to me why." But not only that: «The same operator - he continues - advised me to complain to the Personnel Office. All this is serious, I can't be left alone. My baby doesn't deserve this. This also".
