I visited A., she is a cuban doctor in her forties and she manages the leprosies department of an hospital in Phonm Penh for almost 3 years. Actually exactly 2 years and 7 months. She has still 5months to go before she can go back to Cuba to be reunited with her daughter and her husband. She is counting the days, one after the other but she has no choice. As a doctor in Cuba she makes 20$ per month and it is not enough to support her family.
So she bravely decided to leave her country and her family in the only aim of accumulate money for her beloved ones. Cuba doesn’t allow a husband and her wife to move abroad together, to make sure they will come back … I wish A. lots of courage for the last months.
