“He’s fine, he spent a quiet night and is feeding himself. And we are pampering him, and we will continue to do so as long as he stays in our ward to give him care, but also affection”. Like this Gabriella Tina, head of the complex operational unit (Uoc) of Neonatology of the Garibaldi Nesima hospital, where the newborn found yesterday is hospitalized, with the umbilical cord still attached, wrapped in a blanket in a basket in Catania. It was a passer-by who gave the alarm, calling 112, and making the carabinieri of the Radiomobile nucleus intervene, who looked after him, wrapping him in a clean cover given by the inhabitants of the area, waiting for the arrival of the ambulance with medical staff from the 118 which took him to the hospital.
“From the objective examination – explains doctor Tina – the little one does not show any problems: he has a good weight, he is feeding himself.
And even the first exams tell us that everything went well.
Obviously we will do more in-depth investigations. If he did not have his personal history behind it, we would be led to think that he is the newborn of a birth like many others. “According to the head of the UOC of Neonatology of the Garibaldi Nesima hospital in Catania, the newborn would have come into the world shortly before the discovery. The little one was given a ‘provisional’ name, but the doctor appeals to privacy and prefers to gloss over, recalling that “the Juvenile Court was activated in parallel, which in these cases has fast times”. “Time is important. – underlines – because affectivity is as important as care and nutrition “. He confesses that” while we wait, we are pampering the ward and the world of volunteering and assistance that revolves around Neonatology “and that, without going into the merits , “the solidarity contest has already begun”.
“It is difficult to judge, it is better not to do it, it is often an act of love towards one’s child and others cannot understand it. Maybe the mother has seen and wanted a better life for her child. It is not up to us to say” , adds the primary. “It is true – adds the doctor – that today it is possible to give birth safely and in absolute anonymity in the hospital, but there are realities in this unknown, or there is fear, perhaps because we fear that we will not know the same or on the other hand. It’s all very complicated. So it’s better not to judge, reserving all possible attention to the newborn “.
