Help a Malnourished Child with Whisper's Hospital

We would like to thank our donors for the continuous support towards our malnutrition project.

Your support really makes a difference in the lives of children in our community. We receive very many cases of malnutrition at our Hospital. In the last three months we received over 700 patients both inpatient and outpatient. Malnutrition is one of the common problems that affect most children here in eastern Uganda.

 Weakening of the immune system and increasing the susceptibility of the body to infections are some of the ways malnutrition affects the health of children. We receive many cases of malnutrition with complications of oedema, pulmonary tuberculosis. Most of these children require chest x-rays before admission to rule out the possibility of Tuberculosis. most parents come at our hospital as referals by good samaritans and comes when they know whispers is their last hope. Parents come when they cannot afford even to pay  $24 for consultation . Your continuous donations help us to support these children with all the examinations and treatment that is required and we are glad they leave with smiles on discharge.

Through you donations, we have been able to rescue severely malnourished children from very poor families in the villages. We have also been able to provide for them food to support the parents during the days of admission as the children get better. We are very grateful for your donations that have made this amazing work possible.

We would like to thank everyone who has donated towards our malnutrition project. Every month Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital receives a high number of malnourished children who are living under very poor conditions. These children come from very poor families which cannot afford a meal or even a proper roof over their heads.

The living conditions of these families are so unfavourable that is why Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital decided to treat and rehabilitate such children at a free cost. The parents of these malnourished children don't have to hustle looking for money to pay the malnutrition medical bills all thanks to our beloved donors who have made this possible.

In the past three months Whisper's Magical Children's Hospital received 80 malnourished patients who came for nutritional rehabilitation. Among these was a one and a half years old baby girl who was admitted as a referral with severe a cute malnutrition with Odema, skin dermatosis, hypothemia and malaria. The care taker had lost hope and needed reassurance. The child was rehabilitated by our nutritionist, improved greatly and was discharged and given plumpy nut at no cost. The child is now looking much better.

Thank you so much for always supporting this life saving cause.
