The Hospital de Leiria inaugurated a memorial dedicated to Kristin and depression, which simultaneously pays tribute to health professionals. The piece was created from a large root that emerged from the ground during the storm of January 28.
The Local Health Unit (ULS) of Leiria was responsible for sharing this memorial initiative. The choice of using a natural element resulting from the storm gives the memorial particular symbolic significance.
The Kristin memorial emerges as a space for reflection on depression and recognition of the work of health professionals. This initiative by Hospital de Leiria aims to raise awareness in the community about the importance of mental health.
The sculptural piece resulting from the storm root represents resistance and the capacity for transformation after difficult moments, aligning with the fight against depression and the recognition of professionals who accompany those facing this condition.
