Baby Farouk recovering from malnutrition

Baby Farouk’s shiny face! He was admitted at the hospital due to malnutrition. Just after one week in the hospital under the intensive nutrition program, Farouk is is already making steady progress and is looking great as you can see in the photo on the left.

The condition at home was not good. Farouk’s mom is 17 years and she is suffering from a mental disability. Someone took advantage of her and that’s how she became pregnant with this beautiful baby boy.

The mom is not able to give the normal attention a mom would give a child and the granny helping was struggling to get food for the family.

Please keep Farouk and his mom in your prayers. He is in safe hands now.

Thanks to friends accompanying Baby Farouk on this journey to a healthy childhood.
