This is Kewine.
I examined Kewine for the first time in June, 2010.
Kewine was living in a tent in Carrefour, just outside of Port-au-Prince.
She was born with a Ventricular Septal Defect. This is a hole between the lower chambers of the heart that allows blood to go in the wrong direction.
Kewine was operated in the Dominican Republic in June, the hole in her heart was patched, and she is now back in Haiti.
Her mother is very happy with the results.
And so are we.
Thank you to EVERYONE involved in Kewine's care.
