The Return to Cuba
My homeland
“For years, I’ve devoted my life to helping others across borders — bringing hope where it was needed most. But now, my heart is calling me home.
I want to dedicate this stage of my journey to my own people, to give back to the country that gave me everything. This is my way of closing the circle — with gratitude, love, and purpose.”
— Dr. Roque
In this final stage of his professional life, Dr. Roque returns to Cuba to honor his mother’s wish: to help the Cuban people. With the same vocation that has guided him throughout his career, he now offers his medical knowledge and experience to those who need it most.
For him, the challenges Cuba faces today are not only those of the people living on the island, but of all Cubans, both at home and abroad. Extending a helping hand before leaving this earthly life is his way of paying tribute to the land that saw his birth.
Helping Cuba is not only an act of service, but the closing of a cycle of love, gratitude, and commitment. This final stage of The Route of Dr. Roque represents his deepest desire: to give back to his homeland what it once gave to him.
Dr. Roque’s story is also a bridge between nations. Today, in this new stage of his life, his mission focuses on strengthening the health and well-being of the Cuban people — sharing knowledge, resources, and hope.
Throughout history, the American people have shown a profound capacity for empathy and collaboration in the face of humanitarian causes. For that reason, this initiative is not about asking, but about inviting to share — to join efforts in a project that transcends borders and embodies the most universal values of medicine and solidarity.
Supporting Cuba today means standing for life, dignity, and the future. Every contribution — whether professional, logistical, or human — helps The Route of Dr. Roque continue its purpose: to heal, to accompany, and to build bridges of understanding between sister nations.
More than a call for help, it is an alliance of hearts committed to a single ideal: serving humanity.
