This is Janet who we highlighted last week. She was doing well until she became severely anemic. Her mother brought her to the feeding center this morning lethargic and glassy eyed. Our nurse brought her to us and asked if they could refer her to the hospital for an exam. We sent her and her mother, who was also sick and in pain. We found that in a week Janet had become severely anemic and also has skin ulcers and stomach ulcers which are bleeding. We found that she had also regressed and went from moderate malnutrition back to severe acute malnourishment. She was given a transfusion and is being treated for her other ailments. Please pray for her as she is a sick little girl! Her mother is also receiving treatment – she was also starving and has a peptic ulcer and urinary tract infection. She is expected to recover.
This reinforces the desperate need for the feeding center as without this and the treatment at the Hearts4Africa hospital she would have died.
We are continuing to bring her food from the feeding center so she can eat every two hours.
If you would like to support the ministry of the feeding center to helping feed more families like Janet and her mother, you can donate by clicking on the link in our bio and selecting “Anchor of Hope Project”
