It's a joy to introduce you to Wilderson, one of the new admits to the Rescue Center at Real Hope for Haiti. Real Hope for Haiti shared his story:
Wilderson came from a village that is a 4 hours walk from our clinic. Both his parents came when he was admitted. He has been having edema on and off for a little over a year now. When he was admitted he had a fever and a cold. His oxygen levels were in the low 80s when admitted and so he was on oxygen the first few days he was here along with other medications. His dad stayed with him for several days when he was first admitted as well. He did not have much energy and slept most of the day when he first arrived. Once off oxygen and the edema began to decrease he was up and playing. He recovered well and gained weight at a good pace.
Thanks for providing diapers for Wilderson!
