Well and happy!

On December 11th, 2022 the time had come. Shekina was treated by Dr. Charles Mvondo and his team operated successfully. It was already foreseeable that the operation and the recovery afterwards would not be easy. Shekina had lived with her heart defect for too long. The operation itself went well. However, Shekina had to be reintubated several times. It was also necessary to implant a pacemaker.

We received this photo in mid-January 2023. Shekina is well and happy again! Many thanks for your support!

Schekina's dearest wish is to be able to go to school again soon. After the fifth grade of elementary school, Schekina had to drop out of school for health reasons. When she was a baby, Schekina was diagnosed with a congenital heart defect, Tetralogy of Fallot. In the meantime, the state of health has deteriorated massively and an operative correction is inevitable.

Actually, Schekina should have been operated on immediately after the diagnosis was made. This did not happen for reasons unknown to us and also for financial reasons. Marie, the mother, is a widow and takes care of her two children with her modest salary.

With your valued help, we want to make the life-saving operation possible for Schekina. Thanks in advance!
