Next Saturday, 19 April 2008, at 5 p.m., there will be a peaceful march from the Convento to the Plaza of the Santo Nino, to show compassion and indignation for the death of Luis Alberto Ramírez. The march is to show the general discontent with the Servicio Andaluz de Salud (health service.)

Letter from Maria Jose Ramirez:

Palabras de la hija de Candida
"Buenas a todos,

I write to you about something very sad. My younger brother was in the hospital for a week with stomach pains, vomiting and diarrhea. We took him three times to the emergency ward, but finally he died, and the autopsy showed PERITONITIS, incredible!!!

I have been on the sick list myself and it will take time to heal from this ordeal. Now I have to be with my mother and brother, who need me.

I imagine that you all have seen in the newspaper or on the television, this sad news, which was in the Sur and the Opinión, as well as on the news porograms, España Directo, Andalucia Directo.

I ask that you spread the news about the march on Saturday to protest this death.

Thank you, and un saludo.

María José Ramírez
