Young children can get sick very quickly. And with medicine they can get better quickly too!

Mothers challenge their babies to walk at an early age. Here in Haiti some babies are standing and making efforts to walk at 7 and 8 months of age. I guess the earlier they get off the dirty ground the better.

This grandmother lovingly is holding her new grandson. The mother stands behind. He is only 1 week old.

Mothers can be very young here in Haiti.

Mothers want their children to be in good health. It must be frustrating to see a child sick and not having money to buy medicine.

Some elderly people came to the clinic.

This young boy has a bloated belly caused by malnutrition and sometimes by worms.

It is tough on families to obtain medical care. The people appreciated the efforts of the medical team.

The press came to do a few interviews. Jean Marcel of Action Chretienne Pour le Developpement is speaking to a journalist.

I have known Joel of Action Chretienne Pour le Developpement since 1998. As long as I have known him he has been striving to help the Cite Soleil community.
