In the personal interview that I had with Ricardo, I asked him to write everything that he believed that could help it, I also advised him, that I do not all have the economic resources to help him with all his needs but, with the help of friends, we will help him as much as is possible.
RICARDO'S LETTER.
Mr. Marco González
his office:
I am sending you this letter in order to let you know you a list of my needs; an orthopedic bed with mattress that wouldn't give me scars or wound, a teusiometro with his own stethoscope. A wheelchair with air tires, as we talk about it.
As I explained to you before, I have no sensibility in my lover part of my body therefore I'm suffering of several gastric problems, given me a lot of discomfort due to the fact that I go irregularity to sanitary service. I else, have no control in my urination, I need a urinary bag with his respective urodit that I can attached on my leg,
I am very badly of the vesicle, a doctor is evaluating if there is a need of having a surgery but, my case is complicated do to the bronchial asthma which I have been suffering since 10 years ago. I need a portable nebulizer. If you can, I need you to search for me, a non-profit orthopedists of the United States or any other country that come to Nicaragua to carry out hip and knee operations, since I do not have my left hip, (it was removed from me in 1984) and since that time, I have not been able to obtain a prosthesis.
I am suffering of anquilosis problems in my knees which need a reconstructive surgery to recover the mobility of both knees.
I have two Dreams: the first one is to have small solar panel which I can install it in a little house of my parents, located far from the city zone which has no electric, and I can be able to expend some time, and get some pure fresh air in to my lungs, also, the same solar panel will generate enough electricity, to install a little refrigerator that I could be use to sell carbonated water, ice creams etc.
The second dream is to have a taxi-motorcycle send it to work with my brother so I will be able to have some income to help in my expenses.
My clinical record is the following one: I Was injured by firearm caliber 45, which I cause me central wounds, the same bullet crossed both lungs leaving me parapléjico and without sensibility in the half of my body.
