Herminia Bustamante
Herminia is an 8 month old baby born to Hector and Elizabeth Bustamante. She has suffered from a heart murmur since birth and has not gained much weight, currently being at 6 Kilos. Hector drives a cab and makes approximately 50 bolivianos a day. Her mother takes care of their other child, a 2 year old. They live far outside the city in a modest dwelling. In her desperation, Elizabeth felt quite alone. I do not know what to do. Help me to fight for the health of my little daughter. I trust that with God's help all will come out well. And indeed, it has. She was successfully operated on the 27th of May in Santa Cruz. This surgery was made possible through the financial support of Dharma Trading Co.
