Everybody hurts, you are not alone... ABOUT AMALIA (thanks for reading) "Every patient has the right to being respected and maintaining his dignity." (Greek law, article 47, L.2071/1992) "Quacks should be the exception, you guys, not the norm..." (Amalia Kalyvinou , 1977-2007) Since the age of 8, Amalia Kalyvinou started having pains. Despite her numerous visits to doctors and several admissions to hospitals, no-one managed to diagnose her in time with the benign neurinoma of her lower extremity, which was the actual diagnosis at that point. 17 years later, Amalia was told that the neurinoma had transformed by then into a malignant tumour. For the next 5 years, Amalia not only had to fight with the cancerous disease and amputation, but also with a corrupt Greek National Health System: it ignores (by choice) the ongoing patient-to-doctor bribery and insists on time-consuming bureaucratic methods and practices. Besides radiotherapy and chemotherapy, Amalia had to face the financial exploitation by doctors that stood opposite to rather than by her side. On top of her pain, she had to endure the greediness of private clinics and the exhaustingly long waiting queues of the health insurance system, in order to get legal approval for some ridiculously low financial compensation. Amalia passed away on Friday, May the 25th, 2007. She was just 30 years old...Before dying, she managed to document her experience and share it with us in her blog http://fakellaki.blogspot.com/... The promising literature graduate named in there each and every one of the doctors she had to bribe, praising at the same time the ones that honoured the Hippocratic Oath. Her testimony moved thousands of people that stood by her side all the way to the end. read more and in almost every language here: http://giatinamalia-blog.blogs...
