CAS on Thursday

Last week we went to the Hospital for our monthly visit to the Cleft, Lip and Palete children. We go there once a month to check that our funds are going to the people that need it, interact with the older kids and speak with the Doctor to organize what we need to do to help advertise further. Increasing awareness of the community that helps these kids is important to help them get funds as well as joining with our local community to encourage the families that have a child with the disease to look for help. This also links us to the Global Community to ensure that people in society are aware that quite a few kids that are born have this problem and we need to help make their lives as normal as possible.

We took some pictures with the permission of the families of kids that just had the operation as well as the ones being prepared for the operation. We talked to a mother whos child was only 18 days old and was given medication to help her sleep. This made us very sad but also happy that such a small child was being helped. The child looked so helpless which is why we felt sad.
