Recently I had the opportunity to attend a day on spina bifida and apart from learning a lot about this bad congenital I saw this short film that moved me and clarified many questions about it, so I wanted to share it with our readers. It's about a video about the life of people with spina bifida.
This is a short film that shows us the daily life of children, adolescents and adults with spina bifida, the difficulties they face and remind us of the importance of taking folic acid before and during pregnancy to Prevent this malformation.
The video advances with the narration in off of a child who has spina bifida, Paquito, one in four or five children out of ten thousand born with spina bifida. A little different child, why? What do parents feel at the beginning? What difficulties do you encounter?
We see how the child grows, his friends, his differences, his difficulties, his advances, his entrance to school, personal relationships, work ...
This is a short on spina bifida Prepared by the FEBHI, Spanish Federation of Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus Associations that affects important aspects for this association: the non-overprotection of these children, the support to improve their quality of life, the acceptance of the environment ...
Why people with spina bifida they have special characteristics that are added difficulties, especially reduced mobility and the issue of sphincter control, but after all Paquito has the same rights as everyone, and as it reminds us at the beginning, in one way or another, doesn't it are we all different?
