Dear Donors,
Thank you so much for your support to finance the rehabilitation of 7 burned children in Peru. One of the children you are supporting is Anita, who is going to tell her story herself (we translated it in English for you though):
Hello, my name is Ana and I am 7 years old. 4 years ago, I was playing in the kitchen and I wanted to see what was on top of the kitchen, so I opened the oven door and hot water fell on my chin and chest, it hurts a lot. I went to the hospital and I was hospitalized for 2 months Then when I got out of the hospital they took me to Aniquem, there I received my therapies and I met other children who were also burned like me. Now I feel much better but I no longer go into the kitchen to play, I just play with my little brother in another room. When I grow up I would like to be like the doctors to help more children like me.
Anita is a sweet girl, a bit naughty but very smart, her mother thinks that when she grows up she will be a great doctor and so will we. She now attends school like other children online and is very outgoing, but she is still scared , so she receives psychological therapies and is improving little by little, the work we have done has paid off and we are very proud to see Anita so happy and well.
Thank you again so much for helping Anita and many other children with severe burns in Peru!
If you have any questions concerning our work or if you would like to visit our rehabilitation center to see our work yourself, just let us know!
We send you our best wishes and hope you have a great day!
The whole team of ANIQUEM
