Last weekend Cetap Lucy and HKIE had a minor emergency. Little 3 year old Irina fell and badly gashed her forehead. She needed stitches placed by a plastic surgeon to prevent a bad scar. Dr. Pablo was in surgery all day, so she was taken to Sta Ines.where after waiting a couple hours for the plastic surgeon to become available, Irina was stitched up as good as new. Between big brother, mom and dad and grandma and Rocio from Cetap Lucy, we had a very thankful group!
Also this week little 18 month Alfredo had his cleft lip surgery at Hospital del Rio. He was not a happy tyke before hand...he could not understand why he was hungry and not getting fed. As you can see from the immediate after photo from Dr. Pablo Salamea, he will grow up never knowing he had this cleft lip.
Thanks to all our donors, two more children and their families went home happy and healthy.
