Since our last report, our partners in Costa Rica and Paraguay have been providing life-saving interventions to hundreds of children. In Paraguay, one little girl received a much needed heart. Heart transplants are risky, especially for children and it's an amazing feat when it is done succesfully. A 5 year-old girl received a heart just in time and can now move forward to enjoy her childhood. These types of miraculous interventions could not be realized without the help we received from donors like you and our dedicated teams of health care professionals who are among the best in world.
With your ongoing support, Surgeons of Hope is able to send them on missions of mercy to the areas we serve. Through their work, they can transform a hopeless situation into one of joy and triumph.While Nahaira is one of the lucky ones, there are there are currently families in Central and South America who wait in quiet desperation for a life saving intervention to save their child’s life.
Below is a link to the story of the girl and her new beating heart.
