On Friday, at 10:48 p.m., Pablo Musse responds to Clarín on WhatsApp with a  sticker of hands holding a rosary. Tomorrow the call would come. The interview. His crying. The memory of his daughter. But, with that sticker , it already said everything.

There were exactly 12 minutes to go before he passed through the Huinca Renancó health control again , a kind of "border crossing" to Córdoba. A cabin from which, before, when Solange, 35, was still dying from breast cancer and only asked to see it, they had not allowed him to enter the province. He had driven without pause from Neuquén (a trip he would repeat less than 24 hours later). But two rapid tests gave results, he says, "doubtful" for coronavirus.

With the digital prayer, then, and a negative swab that was done when returning the same kilometers, now he wanted to be allowed to be at the cremation of "the girl", as he always called her. The one who 10 years ago had discovered a lump on her breast and did not take long to go to the doctor for a history of malignancy in her mother.

In the car, together with his sister-in-law, who needs assistance to get around, Pablo also had an appeal from the Federal Justice. As he had closed that booth at 22, he showed the letter and, finally, he passed.

But, because of the restrictions, the wish of a girl about to die was not fulfilled. 

Solange's case is taken as a flag for the rest of the "lonely" deaths in the pandemic . And, for many families and interned people, today is a "judicial" beacon so that similar sad stories do not happen again.

Solange was 35 years old and had traveled to Córdoba in February to undergo alternative biotherapy, hoping to reverse phase 4 of the disease. He had bone and liver metastases. His mother, Beatriz, accompanied him and Pablo stayed in the south. The 58-year-old man, unemployed, arrived at Alta Gracia, the city where her daughter was born, on October 23, 1984, at 2 am on Saturday, and died on Friday.

"I was going to visit her in March, but the quarantine started and we were separated. I never imagined that they would deny me the last five months of my daughter's life. Sol was always bad and she got ahead. Now I thought she was going to get out too The doctors told us no. But, as a father, you never want to think about it. I never imagined not seeing her again, not even in her last days, "she tells Clarín by phone during a walk" to rest my head, because the heart ... . it can not".

" She asked for it and no one listened to her. The death of a daughter," she says, "has no name. Being, in the end, together, would have given her calm. And even relief. I feel that I will always miss that goodbye. she also needed it ". Pablo says that he cried at times throughout the trip, accompanied

Solange was not an easy person to leave behind. His father tells it in a stop on the trip. With Alejandro Bueno, a prefect, she had married in Buenos Aires (she became a hostess and studied English translation, but left the race due to cancer) and she did not even separate them from the divorce . "He accompanied her in the illness and was attentive to her until the last moment, now," says her father. "And it was like that," she remarks, "despite the fact that she went to Puerto Madryn with us, to see the doctor who had saved her mother there."

Three years after Beatriz finished treatment, her daughter started chemotherapy. During the trip, Pablo remembered the worst moments. "In Sol the disease was harder, but she fought like a lioness. Always. She has come out of radiotherapy, chemo. The cancer never went away and we came to this alternative therapy in Córdoba. In Alta Gracia I held her at birth and, now, I don't know what I'm going to do . "

The cremation was scheduled for 17 this Saturday. Beatriz, Pablo and her aunt were going to be present. Her younger brother, no, also because of the pandemic. But, in addition to the media that will closely follow this farewell, Solange's family knows that many other people will come to accompany them.

"What I have to say is that my daughter wrote a legacy in this situation . I did not have coronavirus, I had no symptoms and the girl in the cabin (the position of the Emergency Operations Center) told me 'The result is doubtful, no it means you have coronavirus, but you can't happen. ' This happens to people like us, not the powerful. But we have rights until we die. She, as she wrote in her last letter, did not have them. Please, I hope that thanks to her the last breath of all is respected ", Pablo closes.

Solange loved to travel and believed that her life was going to be on airplanes. But his place in the world, the same, was the coast of San Antonio Este, near Las Grutas. In a few days, her father, mother and aunt will return south to scatter her ashes in the port. A wish that is going to be fulfilled.
