FLAMANDA

This is a little child from Chambrun where I do medical clinics with NVM. She is 5 months old and has Hydrocephaly. On my last trip I had to tell her mother what was wrong with her child and that there is no treatment avaliable for her in Haiti and without it she will be mentally and physically challenged. Not something that is treated in Haiti very well. It was very heartbreaking.

Through Hands that Heal the other organization I work with we are going to try to seek medical help for her. Her family is extremely poor. Her only chance for life is to get to the U.S. for a procedure to drain the fluid off her brain.

Hands that Heal is in need of several hundred dollars for a CT scan for her, blood work and a passport. I have a doctor in Indy that will review her tests, hopefully she will be accepted but we need the CT before we can do anything. She and her family need much prayer. Her mother brings her to church every sunday faithfully hoping some help will come for her.

If you feel lead to give to her medical care you can email me for more information.

Blessings,

Stephanie
