I have had to get up from bed twice.

The line phone rang and I got up. It is near, but not so near that I can just pick it up. It was a doctor from traumatology. She wanted to talk to the lady of the house. At this time of my life I can smell a scam so I asked what did she want. She said I´d have to pick a pencil and a paper (to send money maybe?) because (maybe?) one of my loved ones had had a horrible accident and she needed money. She said she would not say more until I gave her some details of MYSELF. I said I wouldn´t and said good by. She changed her tone and answered in a very non professional way. That was it, I supposed. But some time later, the same person, or al least someone with the same name, started to say the same things. I said I would hang up and I did. But I get worried because I don´t know what they can get from you even if you don´t give any details of yourself. Many of these calls are from jail. The inmates have a lot of people out "working" for them.Only yesterday, there was a special commando operation in a jail and an inmate (a Venezuelan who had many killings in his name) had a key to handcuffs of other inmates in his pockets. And we can´t send these people back to Venezuela as Maduro doesn´t want them. So, here I am, having to walk a bit inside my house, because I don´t dare anymore walk around my neighborhood. The world has turned into a violent place.
