Eyes in the Dark#243 Who failed Maya? – Im Schatten der Fürsorge
Was, wenn medizinische Fürsorge plötzlich in den Verdacht der Manipulation gerät? Was, wenn Eltern, die alles für ihr Kind tun, plötzlich selbst unter Verdacht stehen – und das System, das eigentlich helfen soll, zum Gegner wird?
In dieser Spezialfolge erzählen wir die Geschichte von Maya Kowalski, einem Mädchen, das plötzlich an einer seltenen Schmerzkrankheit leidet – und deren Familie sich bald nicht mehr nur mit medizinischen Fragen konfrontiert sieht, sondern mit Vorwürfen, die alles verändern.
