A través de un conversatorio el día de la mujer, se expusieron casos y aquí conocí el de ella. Esta mujer es mi vecina, hoy disfruta a su bebé, al que siempre quiso tener y que casi no puede porque la matrona siempre le decía que no lo hiciera por su condición socioeconómica; ella sentía que sin una explicación lógica se le estaba negando el derecho a volver a ser madre, esto le generaba malestar.

At an event for woman’s day, many women shared their stories, and that’s how I came to know the story of my neighbor. Today, she lives happily with her baby. She always wanted to have a child but almost wasn’t able to, because the midwife told her repeatedly that she shouldn’t have a baby due to her socioeconomic situation. She felt that, without a logical explanation, she was being denied the right to become a mother, and she was deeply upset by this.
