Dobrý den, prosím přeložte tento dar, pokud jej neumíte přečíst, je ve španělštině, děkuji za pozornost.
Hello, my name is Gabriela Urdaneta and I am making this collection on behalf of my Venezuelan friend Moises Torreala who has a tortoise called Angelita. Unfortunately he is unemployed right now and does not have enough money to pay the vet, so the days of this little friend have been filled with suffering. After Angelita was trampled by the wheel of the neighbour's car while she was walking around at night, I dictate what my friend Moises told me about what happened.
Last night I went to bed late, at about three in the morning (3 a.m.) waiting for the neighbour's car to arrive, and just in case (just in case) a second car, because sometimes they put two cars in but the timing is predictable. When I saw that the neighbour's car arrived, I waited for an hour and I didn't see the second car arrive, I assumed that it wasn't going to come, I was stupid and this was my fault, because if a second car arrived and as I went to bed late, it was obvious that I was going to wake up late, I woke up late and when I got up to see if a second car had arrived, there was only my neighbour's car and obviously I didn't see a second car because they had taken it out. But when I was asleep at nine o'clock, I suppose the tortoise crossed the second car and the man is very absent-minded and didn't see it. And mum says it was a brush but that's a lie, it wasn't a brush, that car got on top of the tortoise, it mounted one of the wheels and when the boy felt that his car was lifting he obviously said ''Something's happening here'' so he went forward again, got out, saw what had happened, got scared, called a bunch of neighbours to help him solve this problem, which connects to my other neighbour telling me that there were people at my house at nine o'clock in the morning and what they did was they moved the injured turtle to the back of the yard to make it look like it just happened by chance, it will be in the yard and something happened, God knows what happened and so on. They got scared, everybody went home and that was it. I woke up at eleven o'clock and I didn't even know what had happened and I didn't even know that it had happened because there was no second car and I assumed that Angelita was fine, (Angelita is called the tortoise) when my mum arrives she goes to the patio and the first thing she sees is the tortoise lying on the ground with its shell open. And we started to draw our conclusions''.
This was the story told by my friend just a few minutes ago with an audio and a phone call, along with some photos to confirm the condition of Angelita the tortoise. According to my friend's words, when his father gave her to him, it was to make her grow and serve as food in an emergency, but in the end the turtle became part of Moises' family, being more than a pet, being a life companion that has been there in his hardest moments and showing more humanity than many people he has known throughout his life. Right now as you read this Angelita is lying there resting and enduring the pain of her injuries caused by the distraction of both Moises and the driver who did not check before starting the car and the lack of maturity of the neighbours to take the blame and provide help for what happened, only wanting to hide the facts of their wrongdoings while Moises desperately begs for help to save his friend. Please help us save this tortoise who does not deserve to suffer but is in such a precarious situation because of carelessness. If not to pay for a vet, then at least to give him a peaceful rest in his last moments of life.
