 Hello! I will talk about a sensitive and controversial topic, the Chilean health system, until last year I was one of the people who thought that the system was inefficient and that only those who had money were saved, I don't think so now.

She was treated at the hospital in Los Ángeles, after performing some tests, she was operated on less than two weeks after her hospitalization, I was very surprised and suspected what was happening. Thanks to the timely action of the doctors at the hospital, my mother is now very well, they removed all the damaged cells, but she still has continuous check-ups to prevent problems.
