| Subject: We know best: Statist doctors tussle with miners - While the govt censors their mail Sat Sep 18, 2010 3:16 am | |
| ''The honeymoon is over,'' explains Alberto Iturra, the lead psychologist in the operation to free 33 men trapped 700 metres deep in San Jose mine. As point man for the psychological health of the trapped men, Mr Iturra is at the receiving end of the rage of relatives of the miners who are upset at the Chilean government's refusal to deliver letters considered ''psychologically inappropriate''.
The widespread censorship of letters to and from the miners - which the government now claims has ended - acted like a spark to ignite what was already a simmering conflict: family members ever more desperate for their loved ones to be rescued and the government medical team battling to keep the miners psychologically united and working as a group.
