Fernando

Fernando is 13 months old and at 7 months he had open heart surgery.  He also suffers from a cleft lip and palate.  He is a tough little guy.  According to his dad who is a nurse, Fernando quickly recuperated from his heart surgery and he was certain his son would do as well with the surgeries we could begin to provide.

Fernando had cleft lip adhesion repair yesterday, the beginning stage of his lip repair surgery.  This morning Fernando is sweet and active, the strong little character his dad predicted.

Iowa MOST will continue to serve Fernando next year in Quetzaltenango.  It will be a delight to see him again.
