So Glad You Helped Me!
Life Saving Heart Surgery for children is a continuing need. Even during this extended period of Covid the reality remains - Children are born with heart abnormalities!

Thanks to you our donors we've been able to continue sponsorships even in the Covid- 19 pandemic for children who need life-saving heart surgery! The families of these children are filled with gratitude and thankfulness for this blessing. Three of our recent children are now home and gaining strength from their life-saving surgery. And we have just received a request from the pediatric hospital to sponsor two more children. You, our friends and donors make LIFE possible for these children and give hope to their families even in this pandemic time. We are truly blessed. All your donation for children's heart surgery goes directly to support their specific surgery and medical expenses!
One father wrote in his thank you to our donors. "I am the father of N. T. T. and my family is so thankful to receive the scholarship from MEDRIX. My daughter is stable now and ready for discharge. Our deepest thank you to MEDRIX donors and hope that there will be more children who suffer from congenital heart defects will also receive the support like my daughter."
Again, we at MEDRIX thank you!

Khoi and his mom are breathing easier !

The Covid pandemic may be decreasing in the USA, and in Europe, but in many places globally the pandemic is still causing havoc. This is particularly true in developing countries such as Vietnam. And although Covid is still on the forefront of global thinking, Ms Huyen is thinking of other things these days.
She is thinking about her precious newborn son, Khoi. He was born in a remote village in Central Vietnam. Little Khoi was recently diagnosed with a very severe heart condition. Emergency surgery was needed. So in the few days after his short life began little Khoi entered the hospital for life-saving heart surgery. And, that's exactly what happened. The surgery saved his life. Yeah!!
He’ll need additional surgery in the future, but for now he is getting enough oxygen to sustain his life until he grows more and is strong enough for the next surgery.
The emergency is over, and they went home today. He’s pretty tired, and so are mom and dad. But they all will breath easier for awhile.
Thank you for supporting Khoi and other children who face severe needs even as the pandemic continues to affect many.
