When Something Had to Break


Overview

Dagoberto Mastropiero works reviewing denied medical claims. His task is not to heal or decide, but to explain-using precise, impersonal language-why certain treatments will not be covered. When his daughter Jasmin is diagnosed with cancer, Dagoberto discovers that the same system now governs her time through authorizations, delays, and refusals. Surgeries, chemotherapy, and paperwork turn waiting into a risk, and care into a privilege mediated by insurance. Cornered between medical urgency and the logic of profit, Dagoberto identifies a narrow fracture within the system and chooses to act. What follows is not a loud crime, but a quiet and perfect one-an intervention the system itself cannot name without exposing its own design. ""When Something Had to Break"" is a novel about fatherhood, illness, and power; about healthcare turned into merchandise; and about how a single decision can open a path toward a universal right to care.
