All it took was thinking about the meaning of the word "right" and my head buzzes
images, past and present situation of mixed feelings. The images
lead back to bloody battles and jubilant crowds, men and fanatics
just crazy, to conquer and negatives, large and small wars
abuses of power, the weak and the powerful, the poor and the rich, the life and death. The feelings are anger, helplessness, pain for those who always suffer, respect and admiration for those who have staked their lives for an ideal, the delight and joy for those who made a success of their own right. Article two of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights contains a few lines in a universe. Three key words: "freedom without distinction." Now I want to tell the story of Maria Noemi. Maria Noemi was born August 7, 2005 in Rome. Having doctors delayed the caesarean section, which causes severe asphyxia suffered brain damage. Now he has the need for constant care and medical specialist visits, life-saving equipment, which sometimes, notwithstanding the requirements, it fails. This girl is linked to the machinery, without who would die. Many medicines that are needed are extra. Naomi's dad is a driver of the bus and the mother is unemployed, but much work could not attend because she has her baby. The monthly charges are higher than revenues, so the parents are forced to constantly ask for help from friends and relatives rely on the generosity of others, organize events using the profit to survive. Parents were advised to quit Maria Noemi in a specialized structure, but they refuse because they understand that the only joy of this unfortunate girl is the love and closeness of his family. Certainly not enough to understand this family encounters difficulties qu nt daily. But now I wonder: where is their freedom and that of Mary Naomi? Where is their dignity whether to allow their daughter to live were forced to beg? Where the rights of these children, already sorely tried by life, to get what it deserves without having to wander from one hospital to another? Unfortunately, Maria Noemi is a drop in the bucket ... Where is the right of freedom of an invalid who already imprisoned in her body, is forced to remain imprisoned in the house because of architectural barriers? And where does his dignity if he is forced to look at twenty buses pull out in front before you can get one that suits your conditions? When we say that the wealth does not bring happiness may be true, but surely the life of these families would be much easier ... Article of the Declaration of Human Rights affirms that "everyone is entitled to all rights and all freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any race, color, sex, language, religion, of political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status.
reluctantly from this case and many other shows that the freedom of the individual and quality of life are closely related to other factors: one of these wealth.
