Something that looks like an absurd theatre scene is taking place at the local music school in the town of Massanassa, just outside Valencia, Spain. A soiled grand piano is chopped into pieces with an axe and hammer so that soldiers in safety suits can carry it out into a container. The room, which was previously used for performances and concerts, is located in the basement, and was therefore converted into a brown aquarium when the water came. Now it must be emptied of inventory, mud and sludge. <br>Photo: Signe L\u00e6gsgaard\/DMJX\/Politiken<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1066\" src=\"https:\/\/photo.dmjx.dk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/2024Kandidat_AAP-5_lille.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7292\"\/><figcaption><em>It gives strength to have to carry. Freja is in a warm bathtub in Lukashuset, a children&#8217;s and young people&#8217;s hospice in Denmark. A physiotherapist massages her arm while her older sister Nova plays next to her. As she lies there, she looks like all other three-year-olds, but Freja has a rare genetic defect, epilepsy and involuntary muscle cramps, and she needs help with most things \u2013 eating, drinking and lifting her head. Until February 2024, her family tried to manage things themselves.
