ABANDONED CHILDREN
ABANDONED CHILDREN--JURNALUL NATIONAL WANTS A DEBATE
By: Luminita Gurita
Every year thousands of children are abandoned in hospitals in Romania. Most of them are relatively healthy and they all need to grow up in a family. However, they remain in the hospitals because the orphanages have been closed before the state has been able to provide an alternative system of protection.
Consequently, they are condemned from birth to a life without affection, to alienation and to infections from their stay in the hospital. They are not vaccinated (something that is required and is free for children who have identity documents) against childhood diseases. Those who are born with problems often end up in the pauper's cemetery.
The salvation of these children is the responsibility of every Romanian. Jurnalul National has made the first step, via a press campaign through which they wish to mobilize the state authorities.
We are debtors to these children who wait on a bed in the hospital to help them further
