Iseilys Valdés, from Santa Cruz del Norte, lives with his daughter under a roof about to collapse and suffers the harassment of the child of the child.
Madrid, Spain.- The Cuban Iseilys Valdés Oña, resident in Santa Cruz del Norte, Mayabeque, has made public a dramatic request public: selling one of her kidneys to buy a home and guarantee a safe home for her 11-year-old daughter.
In his publication, Valdés wrote: “I sell one of my kidneys to be able to buy a house with dignity to my daughter, at least leave her with something in this life. To those who are going to criticize, thank you, I lend you my shoes to put them on. They will imagine how I am when I make public what I am happening.”
The woman, single mother, explained to Cubanet That he currently lives in a borrowed property, in poor condition and at risk of collapse, so he fears that the roof can collapse. He is dedicated to painting nails and selling products to keep his daughter, but his income does not allow him to access his own home.
As he said, the despair that led her to make the publication is also due to the fact that the girl’s father, with a history of alcohol violence and consumption, frequently goes to the place where she lives to harass her. He has not denounced it because the room in which he resides belongs to him and because he is his daughter’s parent.
The case of Valdés reflects the precarious housing situation that many Cuban families face, especially those headed by women alone, and the absence of effective mechanisms to guarantee their protection and access to safe homes.
