"I would have loved to receive the bill for everything I have not paid," the defense for our public health that has gone viral

Eva Buttom is pregnant with twins, and a few days ago she had to enter the Virgen de Valme University Hospital in Seville, due to the threat of premature birth. After five days hospitalized, the woman decided to publish a text on her Facebook account thanking the attention received and reflecting on everything you would have had to pay for your income, if in our country there was no public health.

And although Eva is aware that public health is maintained thanks to the taxes we all pay, she has not wanted to miss the opportunity to make a plea in her favor, inviting us to defend it, support it and value it.

"A bed on the floor costs us more than 1,000 euros per night"

"I have been admitted for five days and upon discharge, I have only received a paper explaining the instructions I should follow for my treatment, my next appointment and the signature of my gynecologist. I would have loved to also receive the invoice for everything I have not paid, the truth".

"Because I think we are not aware of the luck we have and the need to fight so that this system is not taken away from us. A bed on the floor costs us more than 1000 euros per night"

"I I have had 24 hours available during these days to wardens who took me in bed to the delivery room and back. Nursing assistants and nurses who came to see me every three hours (take my temperature, tension, follow my history, prescribed medications, changes in serum and pathways, wound healing ...). There was a button on my bed in case I needed to call them between visits and visits (I had to do it a couple of times in the morning and it didn't take 2 minutes). His work also includes reassuring us and making us feel cared for and accompanied. "

"Gynecologists who have been controlling my sonograms (3 a day with the consequent material and machinery), obstetricians who worked with gynecologists to compare visions and explore inside (twice a day)".

"Midwives who controlled the contractions on monitors in another room (another 3 times a day), who gave me advice and taught me to calm down."

"Special meal for twin mom, 4 times a day. Hot milk at night to sleep better. Intravenous medicines (4), serum (2) injections (3), pills (6 a day). Laboratory tests (3 analytical) and 2 crops.) Service of sheets, towels, clean pajamas every morning. Soap and sponges. Room service ".

"And of course, an operating room ready in case there was an urgent caesarean section."

"So yes. I've missed an invoice for everything I haven't paid during these days. You should give them to everyone so that the concentrations we would do them for reasons like not losing little by little what we have... instead of waiting for soccer players at the doors of the Tax Agency ".

In Babies and more Pediatricians are missing in the health centers of our country, and our children are the most affected

The post has almost seven thousand comments, some of them negative and insulting towards Eva, such as:

- "This one has no payroll and that is why it says that everything is free".
- "Work, which is what you have to do".
- "They take money from me every month so that people like you come to take advantage of our health."
- "This aunt is another immigrant who comes to give birth to Spain."
- "Go back to your country, beautiful."

Days later, due to the numerous comments he received, he decided to publish an update on his Facebook profile as a conclusion:

And if you want to know more, here you can listen to it in an interview in Cadena Ser.

In defense of our public health

Eva is not the first person in publicly praise our healthcare system and the professionals that integrate it.

A few months ago we echoed the emotional letter that Pablo Iglesias published and dedicated to his premature twins, in which he recognized the work of all the professionals who were attending to them, and the unconditional delivery they showed each day.

The words of Alberto Lizaralde, father of a girl with congenital heart disease, who posted a thread of Twitter on Twitter also went viral. thanks to the doctors who had saved her little girl's life, despite the conditions in which sometimes they must work because of the cuts:

"The workers are the best but many times they have to take turns in excess and give more hours and effort than they should. And that's where they show themselves above the system itself and decide that if they should give more they give it" - he published then .

There is no doubt that we have great professionals in our health, and public hospitals that are a reference both in Spain and abroad. That is why it is important that we value it and protect it among all, making good use of healthcare and thanking those who care for us when we need it. In Babies and more, these are the best 15 hospitals in Spain to give birth
