This is 7 year old Dilan.

About 6 months ago he had his first surgery with Dr. Eddie Lopez at Hospital del Rio.

Dilan had a barely functioning urethra making difficult and painful to urinate. His surgeon fixed some other internal problems.

This second surgery performed this month will insure Dilan grow up to be a normal young man.

His mother is eternally grateful for the help of HKIE. Thanks to Dr. Eddy, Hospital del Rio and , of course, all our supporters for making this happen.

Say hello to Ana Belen!

Ana Belen had the misfortune to be born with an extra little bit of finger.

She would have been uncomfortable growing up this way as we all know how cruel kids can be if you are different.

Problem solved by the amazing Dr. Pablo at Hospital del Rio! Thanks to our donors for making this possible!

Isaac is 1 and a half year old, a beautiful baby from the Santa Elena Province.

His mother contacted us through our social media, because his pediatrician heard a heart murmur and she was worried without any means for medical attention.

We sponsored an ecocardiogram and it was evaluated by our cardiologist, Rodrigo Mendoza in Cuenca who volunteers with our cases.

Fortunately his condition is known as an innocent murmur.

So he can continue his life in a very healthy way.

Thanks to Doctor Mendoza, and specially to our donors that make all of this help possible

Meet 12 year old Nayali who has been wearing hearing aids since she was a toddler.

Her father contacted us asking for help in replacing her hearing aids that were not reparable. The father had been able to raise half the money so HKIE helped with the rest so Nayali could hear again and return to her school work.

Thanks to our donors we can help children like Nayali.

This case represents that another life has been saved!

This is the case of 16 year old Angel.
We were contacted by Fundacion Metrofraternidad in Quito with an urgent request to help this young man.

They informed us it was an emergency case: the young man had ventricular tachycardia and without immediate surgery was not expected to live.

Thanks to Dr. Francisco Rodriquez and his team at Hospital Metropolitano a defibrilator was implanted and the doctors are extremely pleased with the results.

A huge thank you to Hospital Metropolitano, the doctors and staff, and all our donors.
