"I don't care about budgets or bureaucracy, I only ask to be able to have my drug to survive ". Daniela Atzei, 49, is fighting a double battle : the one against breast cancer and against the institutions which for months have seemed to be bouncing responsibilities and have not responded to her heartfelt appeals also entrusted to the program "Le Iene".

"I simply ask to be able to take care of myself": she repeats it several times while waiting for those in duty to do her the favor of giving her the chemotherapy drug necessary to prevent the tumor from also attacking the bones . A race against time where the slowness of those who should guarantee her right to treatment becomes decidedly paradoxical.

Like the warning received from the ASL in which they ask her not to talk about the affair anymore . "Beyond the insult", comments the regional councilor Desirè Manca who is dealing with the story of the young woman who goes far beyond the more classic cases of medical malpractice. « I will not abandon Daniela, I will be by her side for the entire duration of the treatments . His battle is mine too."

Meanwhile Daniela continues to wait: "Every time the phone rings I hope to hear that the medicine has arrived".
