Dr. Konstantin Nikolov died suddenly from this world at only 29 years old. He is an emergency doctor in the city of Sliven. The sad news was announced by his mentor and teacher Dr. Radosveta Stamenkova:
“The boy from the picture, the one with the microphone who looks at us and from the banner “We are not an exception”, left us. The cat. Dr. Konstantin Nikolov from Emergency. One of “our” children from the mentoring program for Roma medical students. I watched with great love and joy how the Cat and his fellow students grow up and become wonderful people, how they have already spread their wings, heal people and help them with knowledge and from the heart. And now the Cat is gone. He was only 29. I am broken. Rest in peace peace, Kotse, may you have peace and light, you will not be forgotten,” she wrote on Facebook.
The campaign WE ARE NOT AN EXCEPTION aims to show positive examples among the Roma in Bulgaria, to present successful young Roma who want to realize themselves, work, study – THEY ARE NOT AN EXCEPTION. The campaign was initiated by ten health mediators who shared that it is traumatic for them when people perceive them through their negative image of the Roma.
