Mother carries dead child to Venezuela morgue due to power failure

[Melech 9,900]

A severely malnourished 19-year-old girl died in her mother's arms after doctors in Venezuela were forced to turn her away because a massive blackout shut down a hospital.

Heartbroken mother Elizabeth Díaz was forced to carry her daughter's body, which weighed just 22 pounds, through the streets to a morgue.

Díaz visited a local Integral Diagnostic Center [CDI] in the northern city of Valencia on Saturday night but was immediately turned away by doctors because their shift had ended because the facility didn't have any electricity.

The mother was advised to visit another medical center in Las Lomas where she was assured the staff could provide treatment for her daughter's cerebral palsy and chronic malnourishment.

According to Díaz, the young woman was repeatedly convulsing and her condition worsened before she felt her daughter's body stiffen.

Upon arriving at the second hospital, the family was shunned at the entrance because it didn't have a functional backup power generator. 

Díaz's daughter died her arms moments later.

The heartbroken mother then carried her daughter's body through the darkened streets to a local morgue.

The mother's dire economical situation hasn't allowed her to reclaim her daughter's body for a proper burial service.
