Así que pasen veinte años

Abstract

The present and the past crossed for a few moments on the night shift at a small hospital. Lucía was with her father in the emergency room when she recognized Carmen, the nurse who was caring her relative. In that moment, the memory of something that happened long time ago flew to that noisy place bringing us a story about interventions that humanize the clinical relation. This story happened twenty years ago, when Lucía was hospitalized. Her stay at the hospital was too long due to problems in her surgical intervention. Moreover, the days were eternal and heavy because she couldn't see her children. Carmen helped to reduce this burden an afternoon. She brought the kids to the hospital and so Lucía could finally embrace them.
