CELEBRATING A MIRACLE

ROMINA'S CELEBRATION.


Peggy and Will Sanders hosted a party in celebration of Romina's successful cochlear implant. Romina wanted a pizza party with family and friends. It was an evening of family, food, fun and celebration of Romina's new lease on life.

Romina is receiving speech therapy twice a week and is already showing great improvement. Her friends and classmates are excited and intrigued by her implant and sudden ability to hear!

Within the next several weeks Romina will be undergoing her first surgery to create actual ears! That will be a post to remember!

Dr. Pablo Javier Salamea Molina, the medical director of HKIE, will make the arrangements for her surgery in Guayaquil. Dr. Pablo will assist in her surgery

Thank you HKIE supporters and the generous private donor for making this happen!

​Here is Mikyl and his mom and his new favorite HKIE toy, getting ready to leave the hospital.

Dr. Juan Jose Diaz performed a successful surgery on Tuesday at Hospital Del Rio to prepare his eye for his prosthesis. He will receive his prosthetic eye within the month. Look forward to the photos!

As you can imagine, Mikyl mother's was thrilled and very appreciative that her little boy was being cared for by highly skilled medical professionals at a top rated hospital.

What a wonderful Christmas present for Mikyl and his family from all the HKIE supporters! Thank you all so much!

89th CHILD HELPED BYHKIE

12/13/2015

​This is Mikel, an 18th month old spirited little boy. He had his left eye removed 7 months ago as a result of neuroblastoma. He was diagnosed in January of this year and underwent 5 months of chemotherapy.

Thanks to the efforts of Dr. Juan Jose Diaz, Hospital Del Rio, and HKIE he will receive his prosthetic eye within the next few weeks. As usual...Dr. Diaz (pictured here) is donating his services to HKIE and the Hospital, thanks to Dr. Pablo Javier Salamea Molina​ and Dr. Luis Alberto Percy (Medical Director} is again giving us a much appreciated discount.

Mikel's mother, pictured with Dr Diaz, asked us if we would meet her at the hospital on the day of the surgery. She can't believe that the surgery will be performed by Dr Diaz at Hospital Del Rio at no cost to her. We always meet the families at the admissions office on the day of the surgeries to reassure and comfort them.

What a wonderful Christmas gift for him and his family!
THANK YOU HKIE SUPPORTERS!

88th CHILD HELPED BY HKIE

​THE 88TH CHILD HELPED BY HELPING KIDS IN ECUADOR (HKIE)

This is Cristofer Alexander, 7 months old, who had the first of three to four surgeries on his face. As you can see, this darling boy was born with a very large, horrific birth defect.. Thanks to Doctor Pablo Javier Salamea Molina​, Hospital del Rio and the supporters of HKIE, this child will not grow up shunned or laughed at.

There will be 3 to 4 months between the surgeries (the surgery is called z-plasty for those interested)...this will allow his skin to heal. We will keep you posted on his progress.

Dr. Pablo is the Medical Director for both HKiIE and our Ecuadorian partner foundation Rostros Felices-Cuenca.
