Doña Gloria, with two children of legal age and the impossibility of going to beneficiary meetings for the amputation of her foot prevented him from continuing to receive the support of the federal government.

Mrs. Gloria's gaze looks lost, the possibility of seeing her hands has slowly decreased because of diabetes.His face shows the wrinkles of the years surrounding mouth and eyes.His house looks empty and careless.

To partial blindness is added a wound that took away the possibility of wandering around his house.A year ago his illness and his careless diet forced him to amputate his right foot, prostrating it every day in an individual bed owned by one his children who no longer live with her.

"I saw well," he begins his story as he joins his younger sister who takes care of her while her children go to school or work.

- These streets went up and down, in fact many of the things that this colony has I managed with some neighbors who no longer live here.

It boasts their achievements, their gestures change, play with their fingers constantly.–Now I only stay in this bed.
Mrs. Gloria is part of 10% of the population that presents a disability caused by diabetes.

In 2015, Oaxaca's health services registered 36,461 patients with diabetes in the entity, one of the main factors that generate physical disabilities.

Specialists explain that a disability occurs in a patient by birth, for diseases, negligence or accidents.

-In my young years I was appointed for everything, I occupied many positions here, I was a member of opportunities, in charge of the Health and Health Commission, to the leader of candidates -Relata.His memories continue, how he veiled for the good of his neighbors although now few come to give him help.

Currently, the State Government maintains a program to support people with disabilities, which has a register of 28 thousand beneficiaries, however more than two months this support has not been delivered.Mrs. Gloria is not part of this group.

- People do not know how much you suffer, being here, to start I am blind and now take.Well, it is not easy, the children are, but everyone is in their own, for example the big one already works, the second does not live with us and the little ones because they go to school.My husband spends it working all day for us to cover the expenses, because as things are no longer enough.

Mother of four children, they detected diabetes 19 years ago.His mother also suffered this evil.

To Mrs. Gloria the federal government withdrew the support of opportunities for two reasons: her two children are already in university age;Second, due to its disability, it cannot go to mandatory meetings.The card in which they had already expired.

- I had opportunities, I was up to date, it was even a vowel, I remember that when this program arrived, other ladies and I moved so that the whole colony would play, they would need it or not, because one does not have to be selfish, in the endIt is our money.
In their hands you see dozens of scars smaller than the head of a pin, traces produced by insulin injections that are supplied every day.

The satisfaction smile is shown on his face while the voice enters short and tears try to leave.The heroine of 65 people benefited in the first stage of implementation of the program and 35 more registered the following year now grabs the chest as a sign of joy when counting its achievement.

Doña Gloria lives in the Loma Bonita neighborhood of the Santa Rosa agency, one of the 45 irregular colonies that maintains the municipality to which services such as drinking water, drainage and paving cannot be installed.However, unlike many of theirNeighbors, she has writings on her land.

"Here we do not have water or drainage, less paving, we managed to put it 27 years ago when a lady who lived in this house, we moved with the municipal president to put the first posts, we have seen how to put the others".

In addition to the lack of services, the cost of transport is high.To get out of home and go to a consultation to the Benito Juárez Hospital of the Institute of Social Security and Services for State Workers (ISSSTE), the family has to have 200 pesos for the transfer in site taxis, as it cannot movein motorcyclexis or public service buses, which are not equipped for people with disabilities.

There are days when he would have preferred not to amputate his foot, the desire to live have been flourishing little by little because their children, neighbors, friends and family encourage her to move on despite the difficulties of her inability.Lying in the back of her bed and with her skirt covering her knee, Gloria shows Algarabía after telling one of her greatest achievements.
