Sometimes, you hear things that sounds unreal and just not believable. A mother carrying a starving child to a hospital is one of those things. How could this happen? What caused this? It is a tragedy. You feel pity for the child.
Not all children make it. For those that make it, they are discharged. BUT they are sent to the nutritional school. It is a live-in post recovery camp for both the mother and child. They learn to prepare and eat nutritious local foods to prevent another visit to the hospital. Also, they learn about the moringa tree, the miracle tree. The moringa tree bolsters the family's intake of nutrients.
We hope that future tragedies are averted. The only thing worst than a mother and her starving child is a mother and her die child.
