This is 10 month old Luciana. Her plight was brought to our attention by Sr. Veronica from the Palmar clinic, asking if HKIE could help.
Luciana, her mom Jocelin, and her grandmother Rosa, took the bus here and spent their first night last Sunday at Posada de Angel (thanks for the discount Daniel!). She had her Covid test Monday morning and we moved them over to Buen Samaritano (Emaus House .... our version of Ronald Mcdonald for those who are not familiar with it).
Dr Pablo Salamea Molina performed this difficult surgery on Tuesday and they returned home on Wednesday. As you can see the surgery was a great success !! Thaanks to Dr. Pablo, Hospital del Rio and our donors, this little one has a bright future.
Luciana will return next eek to be fit for a special dental prosthesis so her teeth and mouth will form correctly. Dra. Mariela Seguncia will make the form for her.
Another child helped thanks to all of you!
