Sicolo Norman House

Sicolo Norman House The Sicolo Norman House Birgu - Malta It appears to be unique on the Island.
(1)

The house at No. 10 Triq it-Tramuntana (North Street) in Birgu known as the Sicolo Norman House had been abandoned for some thirty years before it came into the possession of the present owner; it was in a much dilapidated state. It has taken some five years to be restored to its present condition with the restoration work in the major part having been carried out by the owner himself. The buildi

ng has a distinguished window having Palm motifs and is one of the most richly ornate windows surviving in Malta. The stringcourse set just below the window consists of a delicate frieze of arabesques motifs. In time, the original building was divided such that the house flanking this building, and acquired by the same owner, was originally part of this magnificent place. Presently the owner is busy restoring the adjacent building (No. 11) and when completed the two houses will be reintegrated into one by opening a door, now blocked with stone, in one of the dividing walls. House No. 10 is presently a museum open to the public; entrance is free although donations may be made to assist in the ongoing restoration. The premises are normally open every weekday with the exception of Tuesdays and Thursdays; very often the owner will meet the visitors, very happy to give them an explanation and answer their numerous questions.

Jekk taqbel ma’ Dr Miriam, Agħfas Share ✅

“Il-ħajja dejjem prezzjuża u l-ewtanażja toqtol ħajja.” Hekk kitbet Dr Miriam Sciberras fuq il-paġna tagħha ta’ Facebook. Dr Sciberras hija magħrufa għall-ġid kbir li tagħmel mal-vulnerabbli u għall-impenn tagħha favur il-ħajja f’kull stadju tagħha.

Hija qalet li din id-‘diskussjoni’ dwar l-ewtanażja qed titmexxa daqslikieku hija kampanja politika – “b’fuljetti mqassma f’kull dar.”

Dr Sciberras staqsiet kemm qed tiswa din il-kampanja lill-pajjiż, u jekk kienx ikun aktar għaqli li dawk il-flus jintefqu fuq mediċini u kura paljattiva.

Aktar kmieni, il-Union tat-Tobba ta’ Malta (MAM) qalu li huma jħeġġu “lill-Gvern jagħti prijorità lill-kura paljattiva bħala emerġenza nazzjonali tas-saħħa qabel ma jiftaħ il-bieb għall-mewt assistita.”

It-Tobba ta’ Malta qalu li s-sistema kif inhi bħalissa mhix etikament, klimikament jew operattivament ippreparata għal dan il-pass.

“Ejja l-ewwel niżguraw li ħadd ma jagħżel li jmut għax fallejna li ngħinuh jgħix b’dinjità,” temmew jgħidu t-Tobba.

Għalhekk, hija ħasra li l-kura paljattiva teżisti, u jeżistu wkoll metodi effettivi ta’ kif jonqos l-uġigħ, iżda l-pazjent Malti m’għandux aċċess komplet għalihom u minflok qed tiġi proposta diskussjoni dwar l-Ewtanażja.
