Ultima oara cand v-am scris eram foarte suparata pentru ca urma sa fim demolati cu baraci cu tot. Cautam soluti peste tot. Am inceput sa sun si sa cer ajutor la toti oamenii pe care ii cunosc si sa cer soluti . Eram dezamagita si speriata pentru ca ma uitam la oamenii si copiii din tabara si vedeam ca asteptau sa fac ceva, sa le spun ceva.. Apoi, Dumnezeu..

Cu mila Lui, ne-a ajutat prin ONG-urile care ne sprijina. Au reusit sa vorbeasca cu primarul interimar Stefanel. In urma intalnirii, acesta a anulat, cel putin pentru moment, aruncarea noastra chiar si din strada (Dumnezeu stie unde!). Am reusit chiar sa programam o intalnire cu Primarul. Doar ca s-a intamplat sa fie un incendiu si a trebuit sa mearga acolo. Dar am reusit sa intram in primarie si sa stam de vorba cu Seful de Cabinet ce parea destul de prietenos. Un om care ne-a ascultat problemele si care era uimit de situatia noastra. Ne tot intreba de ce nici un consilier din PMB nu stie despre acest caz in detaliu. Ne-a spus ca undeva s-a rupt firul, insa ne-a promis ca va vorbi cu primarul si va stabili si o intalnire cu Carmen Ivanoiu si evacuatii din Vulturilor.

The last time I wrote here we were desperate about being evicted from the streets too. We were looking for solution everywhere. I started to give phone calls to everybody I knew and to beg for a solution for the camp. I was really disappointed and scared because people were waiting a solution from me. I watched the people, the children from the camp how they hoped for me to come with yet another salvation. And than..God..

With His mercy, he helped us through the NGOs that support us. They succeeded in talking and obtaining an audience with the new mayor, Stefanel. As a consequence, he postponed, at least for the moment, our eviction from the street. We even succeeded in obtaining a meeting with him, but unfortunately something came in and he didn’t make it. But we talked with the head of his cabinet, a person who seemed really warm and friendly. He was a person who listened to us carefully and who showed mercy for our situation. He kept on wondering why the local councilors don’t know in details our case. He told us that somewhere the communication just did not flow and that he will establish a meeting with Carmen Ivanoiu and the representatives of the Vulturilor.

Asta ca sa vada unde este problema si de ce nu s-a rezolvat acest caz pana acum. Insa aceasta intalnire nu a mai avut loc pentru ca dl. Stefanel nu mai este primar. Dar a reusit sa poarte o discutie cu Carmen Ivanoiu si pe aceasta cale noi, evacuatii, le multumim. Caci pentru prima data am dat peste niste oameni cu un caracter bun si care chiar ne-au ajutat. Acum trebui sa o luam de la cap si sa incercam sa stam de vorba cu cel care a fost pus in locul lui Stefanel. Toti acesti primari care vin si pleaca zadarnicesc eforturile noastre. Inteleg ca este vorba despre politica, insa inainte de a fi politicieni, oamenii acestia trebuie sa reprezinte cetatenii. Speram tare ca noul primar va avea rabdarea si intelepciunea sa ne vada cat de amarati suntem si cata nevoie avem de ajutor. Desi ma indoiesc, eu sper din toata inima ca si acesta sa fie gata sa ajute oameni.

Nota: De la redactarea acestui text si pana la publicarea lui, am reusit sa ne intalnim cu noul primar. Despre aceasta intrevedere, intr-o alta postare.

But this meeting never took place. Stefanel is no longer the mayor of Bucharest. But he did what he promised – he discussed with Carmen Ivanoiu. We found out about this and now we, the people from Vulturilor, would like to thank him. It is for the first time that we met good people, willingly to help us among the administration. Now we have to start all over again and to try to find a way to talk with the new mayor. All these people that come and go make it really difficult for us to solve our problem. I understand that it is politics, but before being politicians, these people have to help their citizens. I strongly hope that the new mayor will have de wisdom to see how helpless we are. Although it is very difficult for me to hope, I still have to trust the new mayor.

Note: Since the writing of this text and its publishing here, we managed to meet the new mayor. But about this in another post.
