The neighbor of Titerroy (Arrecife) María Isabel Arrocha Perera, known as Pavela, has died this Sunday in Lanzarote.
The Arrecife resident was a regular listener to the programs offered by Radio Lanzarote - Onda Cero. Thus, María Isabel Arrocha spent several years fighting for her son to be permanently admitted to a mental health center.
In 2015, the woman led a concentration with her family in front of the Cabildo in which she asked that her son, diagnosed with borderline intelligence, mixed personality disorder and drug addiction, receive help from the institutions because he became "very violent" and she was "afraid" of him.
Months later, in July 2016, she managed to have him admitted to the Doctor Julio Santiago Obeso Psychosocial Rehabilitation Unit.
However, the situation continued to haunt her until this year. "I am quite bad because of all these situations that I am going through because of him. Either he leaves or I leave, which I will have very little time left before I die because of what I am going through with him," the woman said on her social networks on January 23.
The vice president of the Cabildo de Lanzarote, Jacobo Medina, has described María Isabel Arrocha on social networks as "a bright light in the Titerroy neighborhood. Her courage and determination as a mother, supporting her son Saturnino in his battle against mental health, made her a true symbol of love and strength. We will always remember her for her courage and her ability to inspire those around her. Rest in peace, dear Pavela!"
