Fundación Pro Unidad de Cuidados Paliativos
​​
This work was given to the Hospice Foundation of Children's Hospital as part of a donation to the program "Urban Auction", which this Foundation performed for the purpose of raising funds for the needs of children in terminal phase. This foundation started its work in 1992 aimed at alleviating the pain that afflicts patients. Due to the nature of their disease, curative medicine offers no alternative, but comprehensive palliative care DOES.
