Children who suffer severy burns often take years to recover to some level of a normal life.
Paola's story is an example of the treatment and care provided at COANIQUEM in Santiago, Chile, over a period of 14 years as she grows. She has received medical treatment, including extensive surgeries; physical therapy, psychological counseling, and loving care.
From a burned child of 3 to a young woman of 16, Paola has progressed to a point of successful school and social activity. However, she continues to receive appropriate treatment from COANIQUEM.
