This little man's name is Brown. Brown was born with a syndrome that caused deformation in his feet and hands. He is not able to walk and will need a double amputation and then prosthesis. We have lined up the hospital, host family, and doctor who will help him but are working on his paperwork for him to travel out of the country for this. Medical visas are a good option for a child needing surgery in Liberia when that resource is not available to them.
And this guys name is Reanes. He is around 1 yrs old and has hydrocephalus. He will need a shunt. He is new in this process but we are hopeful for him. His father died 6 months before he was born and his mothers house recently burned down. She is still living in a burnt out portion of it.
I think you all might remember this little man. Nyenelleh was a child we helped with a medical visa working with another organization and he has been back with his foster family for 6 months now. He had a shunt put in place. He is doing very well.
If you are interested in helping us with finding doctors/hospitals to help cover these kids care then please dont hesitate to contact us. We also have 2 other children in our FMN foster homes we are considering for medical visas. There is also a 16 yr old boy who needs surgery on his lungs. Please keep them all up in your prayers. Imagine if this were your child and you had no access to medical care nor the funds to pay for it if you did. All these children deserve a chance at life!
