Senada is 31 and she lives in old Roma neighborhood Poljice in central Bosnia with her partner Nazif and two daughters. She is approximately five months pregnant with her third child. Since she does not have health insurance, she does not go to the doctor – she does not have the money for the appointments. When she starts bleeding, she goes to the health center. After an ultrasound scan, a doctor concludes that Senada must urgently go to the City Hospital in Tuzla for an emergency surgery. But in the Hospital Nasif and Senada are given the hospital's bank account number with the request for payment of 500 EUR. They have no money, but rules are rules. Without a health insurance card and money, Senada returns home. They have no one to borrow the money from and nothing to sell. For 10 days, Nazif is trying to save Senda's life the best he can. When Senada's health gets worse, they go to the hospital again. But once more, they are not admitted. They try to arrange a delayed payment, but there is no use. On the tenth day, with a sister-in-law's health insurance card, in the Doboj Hospital, Senada is saved in the nick of time.
