Anything that impulses, dynamizes, informs or collaborates with the Administrations, makes us feel on the first line. Finally, we are the free assessors of the Administration, the only thing we need is the help we offer in the case. A thing is collaborating and there will be collaborators.

I will always have my life, no problems, I will organize and manage the time of donation. In no case should I do my assistant work, in the midst of which I can reduce the tendency, but the meaning of my life is the Medicine and its patients, which is what I do.
