Impact of Albendazole in Croix-des-Bouquets

By Brandon Roberts | Program Assistant

Haitians in the communities where we work, consider the Abendazole tablets that we distribute a blessing from heaven. After trying many different kinds of medication, they admit that only Abendazole healed their families. In an interview with Mrs. Hilda Esther, she throws her hands in the air and says, “Abendazole saved my family, it is a miracle working medicine!” Mrs. Hilda Esther lives with her husband and two daughters in Bon Repos, which is a town in Croix-des-Bouquets. Her eldest is 17 and her youngest is 5. They all have intestinal worms. She feels sorry for her daughters because children suffer the worst effects of intestinal worms. Especially her youngest daughter, Chistèle Laurenda Esther, who has a lack of appetite, wakes up from crying in the middle of the night, is always thirsty, and has terrible legions on her skin. Worst of all is that she misses a lot school and is falling behind. But since International Action started providing clean water and distributing Abendazole tablets in their neighborhood, the whole family is starting to feel healthier. Mrs. Hilda Esther is amazed at how fast the medicine works. She is very delighted that her husband can now stay in work and her daughter can attend school regularly. She thanks International Action for bringing the gift of medicine to her community and family.
