"I do not ask you to know who she is, nor to know her if she does not want it. I only ask that you agree to undergo a blood test that could save my life": this is the appeal that Daniela Molinari has launched on the Province of Como .
She was a 47-year-old nurse in Como, born on 23 March 1973. She was immediately left at the orphanage of the Rebbio nuns who registered her as Daniela Simoni, a surname changed when two years later she was adopted by a Milanese family.
For three years Daniela - who in turn has two children, a 23-year-old boy and a 9-year-old boy - has been suffering from cancer.
And now the doctors have proposed an "experimental immunotherapy born in Switzerland that is based - he explained - on genetic mapping, but at least one of the two parents is needed".
Hence his appeal to the woman who gave birth to her, who did not transcribe the name on the documents and also asked to delete the health data.
