My name is Pierre Santania; I am the grandmother of
Nerveline Derionise. I could never say that my little girl was beautiful
because of her illnesses and even more so the fact that she was malnourished.
Since the arrival of the Hands up for Haiti program in Jolitrou she has
completely changed. She is much more settled and she is above all very
beautiful. My wish is that more malnourished children are treated thanks to
this program and that this program continues to grow thanks to God.
My name is Jocelyne Plizee; I am the mother of Celestin
Frandley. I have visited many health care centres with my son but I’ve never
seen any improvement, however when Hands up for Haiti arrived with their
program I can say that it was for my son. My son has been healed and it’s a
miracle for my family. Thank-you Hands up, God bless you.
Meet Winelay Charles. He is about a year and a half old and
weighs 6.68 kg. He was referred to us by Dr. Jenty our doctor at Shada. He is severely
malnourished. When we asked his mother what he eats she stated ‘nothing’. When
we probed a bit further she stated he eats crackers. The child was extremely
dehydrated. Thanks to Hands up for Haiti and MFK this child has a chance to get
healthy, build up his immune system and live a happier, healthier life.
Meet Pierre Elfin. He was born March 19 2014 and was
abandoned by his mother. A family member brings him to the malnutrition clinic
every Wednesday. His admission weight to program was 5.82 kg. His goal weight
is 7.03. He is severely malnourished. He has a history of reoccurring diarrhea
which is all too common for kids here in Haiti.
