Silvio Lozano & Che

“In 1952, I was one of the many lepers condemned to die in a matter of months. I was nothing but a bag of bones. The disease was slowly eating away at me and the pain made me cry. Che sat on the floor beside me like a yogi. I was so weak, I couldn’t even give him my hand. He took mine, inspected it thoroughly and then said: “Your nerve is affected. We must operate!” Despite his cool hand on my burning forehead, I was struck by terror. ‘You will die if we don’t do anything’, he insisted. I screamed like a lunatic when I felt the needles pick my wounds. Then I sought his gaze and fainted. He saved my life. This marked the beginning of a new era for our community. The surgical instruments hadn’t had time to rust”.
~ Silvio Lozano, em depoimento ao livro Che: The Photobiography of Che Guevara
