HKIE Child #294

12/31/2018

Last child of 2018, Maria Paz was born with a cleft lip. She had a less than successful surgery when she was younger, but her parents knew it was not the best that could be done. They wanted their daughter to not be teased and grow up to be the beauty they knew she could be.
So they contacted Dr. Pablo Salamea and HKIE to see if her lip could be corrected. Last week Dr.Pablo performed her surgery and she now has the chance at a better life. Maria Paz and her parents thank all the HKIE supporters for such a wonderful Christmas gift.

This is 3 1/2 month old Roberta, born with a severe cleft lip.This past week Dr. Pablo Salamea Molina repaired her lip at Hospital del Rio. Now little Roberta can grow up without this stigma and have a beautiful smile.
What a great Christmas present for this family!
As he always does, Dr Pablo waived his surgical fees and the hospital gave HKIE a significant discount.
Thanks to all our supporters, Dr. Pablo and Hospital del Rio for making this possible.

This is 2 1/2 year old Johan. He had foot surgery 2 months ago through our coastal coordinator Sister Veronica Kim. Johan had severely pronated feet. Following surgery HKIE was asked if we could provide him with special orthopedic shoes to insure that his feet grow properly. Johan can now learn to walk and run correctly.
Thanks to all our HKIE supporters who made this small miracle possible.

Kevin is a young man who was born with a microtia ear on the side of his face. (You can see a slight scar). Several years ago Dr Pablo removed that ear and last week he performed a "tweak" on his left ear so it will better match his other one. He will now have a normal set of ears.
Marcelo is a 3 month old with a terrible cleft lip. Again, Dr. Pablo Salamea Molina performed a surgery to allow this little fellow to have a normal life.
Thanks to all our donors for making these surgeries possible!
