Dear friends,
Thank you for your continuous support which enabled us to provide the most essential health care services in some of the most isolated and hard-to-reach Himalayan villages of Nepal. We have been able to provide health care in several isolated villages of Humla, Bajura, Mugu, Gokha and Sidhupalchok, even during the global pandemic. Here is a short update of our activity from this quarter that we would like to share with you.
Dila ( name changed) is a nine-month-old baby girl. With her parents, she lives in Bajura, Bichya. At the PHASE-supported clinic, she was diagnosed with severe pneumonia. Her mother was given medicine as well as counselling. She was cured in just three days. This is what her mother shared in her own words.
"I got here at 8 p.m. because I was able to immediately spot the warning signs shared by sisters in mother's meeting," her mother shared. Otherwise, I would wait a few days until I brought her here or I'd have no idea what I needed to do. The things that sisters share with us are valuable and have saved my baby's life."
The pandemic has had an impact all across the world, but the communities we serve are disproportionately affected since they are already underprivileged and depend on day-to-day activities to meet their basic needs.
As a result of your generous contribution, we have been able to save lives and raise awareness about the importance of following healthy behaviours. We'll keep you informed on the strength of your community support in Nepal.
Thank you
PHASE Nepal Team
