14-year-old cancer patient insulted on social media, Mattarella intervenes with a comment on the post

The President of the Republic intervenes on Instagram in defense of a young girl victim of haters

ROME – “Asia I saw your video and you are very good! Congratulations on your strength and best wishes! Sergio Mattarella”. The head of state wrote it from the official account of the Quirinale, commenting on Instagram on the video in which Asia , a 14-year-old from Sala Consilina, in the Salerno area, suffering from a kidney tumor, plays the piano in the playroom of the oncology department of the Santobono Pausilon hospital in Naples.

The young woman has been talking about herself for some time through the web and has often been targeted by haters, as her mother Rossana told ‘Ondanews’, deciding to make some of the insults public received. Shortly afterwards the mother’s reply to the President of the Republic arrived: “I am Asia’s mother, thank you, thank you and thank you again. I hope that Asia’s attitude in the face of this massacre can be an example to many boys and girls, to< strong> give the voice and strength to raise our heads and fight these bad actions”.
