We Saved a Newborn!
We saved a baby from an untreatable
disease.
Abandoned babies are often born sick. Most of the diseases can be cured, or the
damage to the newborn's health can be reversed by a smaller intervention. Cases of babies who carry hepatitis B
transmitted by their infected mothers seem to recur. This often leads to liver inflammation
associated with hepatitis, and if no Hepatect CP immunoglobulin is
administered to the newborns (within 72 hours following birth), this can
cause serious and even untreatable forms of liver diseases later in life.
Purchasing the Hepatect PC immunoglobulin
requires serious financial efforts (at this time it costs 1137 RON in
Romania), and the orphaned babies have no relatives who would cover for the
costs. This is why our foundation has offered
support in four such cases already. We saved a little boy (Gerzsonka) and a
little girl (with the Varga family now). They've found their families since then
and are in good health. Within the framework of the Hepatect
project we offer support in cases like these.
The news about the little Varga girl came
very unexpectedly. The mother was unable to raise her, and
she was a hepatitis B carrier. There were no State funds for the
vaccine. They turned to our foundation for help,
and since fast intervention was needed, yesterday we advertised the case
through our social media channel (Facebook) too. The amount needed to cover the vaccine
came in a few hours, and what's more: the donations exceeded the asked
amount. Our colleague has already purchased the
vaccine, and the little one will receive it today. We are grateful for all the help we've
been offered! This is a project for which we accept
support on an ongoing basis. In your bank transfer please fill out the
Comments/Observation field with the following: "donation for Hepatect". For further information, do not hesitate
to contact us!
Our newsletters on coming events, and the
current situation of the babies, deliver more information for anyone interested. Please, write us a message or an e-mail,
if interested!
Thank you very much!
