From Barranquilla, located in northern Colombia, Valentina arrives with her mother to the Universitary Hospital San Vicente Foundation in Medellín, hoping that the doctors of the Hospital can treat the eye affected by a serious tumor called retinoblastoma.
The mother, very distressed, only knows that in the Hospital are the best specialists in this type of tumors, and that they will make every effort to give Valentina hope to see ... and even to live ...
The donors of the retinoblastoma program, are linked to a cause that goes beyond surgery to regain vision, because this cancer also puts the lives of children in serious danger
