Lolimother of a person missing in Valencia due to DANA (high-functioning isolated depression), also known as cold drop, has made a heartbreaking appeal for someone to tell her where her son is: ‘He has a life ahead of him, He is only 25 years old“. This is what the woman said in a phone call to the program. The critical look.
“He sent me a photo showing that the car was flooded,” recalls Loli, who said she had not been able to communicate with her son since “ten o’clock in the evening”. “He called the ambulance, the fire brigade, but they said everything was cut off, they couldn’t get through,” the woman added. “My son was scared,” he stressed.
That day, his son Daniel was “working in the industrial zone of Riba-roja”, province of Valencia. “Please, if anyone knows, please contact me, I need him, he’s my child,” she said through tears. “It’s not possible, it’s not possible,” Loli denied during the phone conversation. “I need them to find him, please,” he said between sobs.
“The last thing was ten o’clock at night,” the woman said, referring to the last communication she had with her son. “Then he was also talking to his girlfriend, but she doesn’t know anything anymore,” he noted. “His girlfriend, his father, his sister and I are calling him and his cell phone is turned off,” the woman said. The information about the number of victims upset the woman: “We see so many dead… and when my son sent me the photo in the car, water came in.”
“I hope he calls me son and says mom.”
“I hope that soon my son will call me to tell me mom or dad, I’m fine», wished Loli. “I need my child to appear who has a life ahead of him, he is 25 years old,” he said. “He has a wonderful girlfriend, he’s happy, he has a house, he has everything,” he said, adding: “I don’t want his life to end like that, I want my son comes out and for my son to find.” And he delivered this message: “Daniel, my son, please introduce yourself soon.”
The storm caught Daniel “leaving work at 3:00 p.m. and he was alone, as his mother detailed.” “He left the polygon and that’s when he started not being able to get out,” he said. Before losing the connection, Loli knew that her son was “talking with his classmates on his cell phone, calling his girlfriend, who was worried because she wasn’t coming.”
“We told him to get out of there or do something, we were stuck, we didn’t know what to do,” laments the mother. “He got caught by the damn rain that hurts every time it rains,” Loli said. “Not my son, not my son,… my son has a life ahead of him,” the woman concluded.
