Kerrine
This is Kerrine.
She is 10 years old.
Kerrine lives in a tent with her mom and dad and brothers and sisters in Port-au-Prince. It is very hot in the tent these days.
Kerrine has a congenital heart defect called Ventricular Septal Defect. It is the most common congenital heart defect and is a small hole that allows the lower chambers of the heart to shunt blood in the wrong direction.
She needs heart surgery.
What to do?
