A Mom is Forever: The Story of Gabriella and Her Daughter Rosa
From a news story, a story by Alessandra Tuci and Luigi Ferrando
Review:
The book “A Mother is forever” by Alessandra Tuci and Luigi Ferrando narrates a judicial and human story that shook the community of Mirabello Monferrato, a Piedmontese municipality in the province of Alessandria. The story is that of Gabriella Carsano and Luigi Deambrosis, a couple of parents-grandparents who experienced an unprecedented family and legal drama.
In May 2010, Gabriella, at the age of 57, and Luigi, at 70, became parents of little Rosa, born at the Sant’Anna hospital in Turin. From the first days of the little girl’s life, the family was under the observation of the Juvenile Court, following reports from health workers. A month after her birth, an apparently insignificant episode will change the family’s life forever: Rosa is left sleeping in the car parked in front of the house and the neighbors report the incident.
This event triggers a series of legal actions that will lead to the child being taken away from her biological parents, to be then entrusted to another family and subsequently adopted. Despite the legal battle to get Rosa back and the acquittal in the criminal trial, Gabriella and Luigi have always declared themselves victims of prejudices linked to their age rather than the actual ability to raise their daughter.
Tuci and Ferrando, with touching writing free of moralism, tell a story of pain, hope and resilience. The book does not look for the guilty, but wants to remember and make people reflect, with the aim of moving readers to pity and hoping that similar events will never happen again. “A Mother is forever” is a tribute to all mothers who fight for their children and an invitation to reflect on how society and institutions can influence family life.
