Many of our children living in our Love A Child Orphanage came to us because their mothers developed “childbirth fever” (Haitians call it “eklampsi”) and died. I may not have the spelling correct, but it is a very common fever that is caused from infection. Oftentimes, mothers give birth on the dirt floors of mud huts and someone uses a “rusty tin can lid” to cut the umbilical cord! Ericka was found with huge, oozing sores and severe malnutrition, which affected her mental development. Today, she still has “challenges,” but she is our “baby doll” and we love her! Sherry
