Little Gift looks the picture of health to me. This is him at the distribution held in April. He received a medical exam, and serious problems were found. The summary was: respiratory problems, deformed chest, heart murmur with tachypnea, migraine headaches, physical disability, child to be seen by surgeon to ascertain the positions of the chest organs.
It was discovered that Gift's heart is growing at an alarming rate. Chim contacted me today to let me know that we have a medical emergency, and we have taken immediate action. He may need to go to Lusaka, and that is something that Chim will look into. At any rate, I have sent the funds in advance of the sponsor's payment, so that there is no delay. Chim will be in Mazabuka in the next few hours, and will make sure that Gift is taken care of on that end. Next, we will have to wait and see what the doctors say. Please have Gift and his family in your thoughts and prayers as he and his family go through this very scary experience!
