Parents of triplets had to "dump" to pay for their medical expenses

Mexico City (APRO). In May, 24-year-old Aurelia gave birth to triplets, and expenses for medical care at the Regional Hospital of Tula de Allende, in Hidalgo, exceeded her and her husband Salvador’s means.

Hidalgo’s governor, Omar Fayadh, stated that her pregnancy was very high-risk and required neonatal treatment, at the time on social networks.

Salvador explained this to the local media: it so happened that because they were triplets, they explained to us that in Hugotla they did not have all the equipment they could use, and that is why they brought us here.
