photos - malnutrition, hydrocephalus children

Emmanuel Oreus is now out of hospital. We give the Lord thanks for His healing mercies. His family is now part of our feeding program. Hopefully this gift of USAID food will help prevent him from falling back into his malnutrition state. He now is starting to smile as his health improves.


Lina Cloutier visited Haiti for the first time since traveling to the United States for medical care to treat her hydrocephalus when she was a baby. She has been a member of the Cloutier family since that time. Lina was the first hydrocephalus baby I saw in Haiti 12 years ago. Here she is showing off her reading skills!


Lina is holding onto John Charles a hydrocephalus baby who will be traveling to the United States for hydrocephalus surgery after I get back to Haiti in July. It goes to show how a child can develop after receiving hydrocephalus surgery.


John is my nephew. This past weekend my family got together at my sister's house for a barbecue. John is doing well and is a happy boy. He sure has grown!


John is officially a resident of Canada now. It was a long process for my sister Tanya's family but worth it! Continue to keep John in prayer as he still suffers seizures from time to time. He will also hopefully be getting surgery in July on his clubbed feet at the Shriners Hospital in Montreal.
