Saving Little Lexy

Saving Little Lexy

Three-year-old Lexy Francia was “on the brink” of death when her mother brought her to us.. She had a serious condition of severe malnutrition!

She was first taken to our “Jesus Healing Center Clinic,” but was quickly referred to our Malnutrition Clinic.

She was brought by her poor mother, all the way from a mountain village called “Gwo Cheval,” (Big Horse)! Although she was thin, her face, hands, and feet were horribly swollen. Her whole body was in agonizing pain!

Thanks to our doctors, nurses, and clinic workers, and thanks to “our Lord Jesus Christ,” she was cared for using the special foods for malnutrition. Even though we were short on some of the supplies we needed, “loving care” and “the healing hands” of Jesus brought her back to health!

She left this morning weighing 10.5 kg (about 23 pounds). What a miracle for this malnourished baby, and what a miracle for this poor mother, who thought her baby would die!

If you would like to help, we desperately need disposable diapers, small to any size! We need new or used clothing, any size, “from six months to four years old!”

We need both girls’ and boys’ clothing, shoes, socks, and underwear!!

Send clothing to:
Love A Child, Inc.
12411 Commerce Lakes Drive
Fort Myers, Florida 33913-8664
239 210 6107

Or you could send a check, and one of our workers will buy the clothing, diapers, etc. (We could use toys, also!!)

Thank you, on behalf of the “little ones!”
