Dieuferly… I couldn’t believe this child, the first time I saw him… His mom was holding him, and his little clubfeet were all twisted. He and his family of nine brothers and sisters had been living in the mountains so far away in Covant. When I looked at him, I could see a young man aged 17 or 18 crawling on the ground with clubfeet.
At that time, the U.S. military occupied Haiti. We found some military doctors who would do the surgeries, but they were not “professionals” with clubfeet. Dieuferly has suffered from many operations and still has problems in his feet, but he can walk. He always needs special tennis shoes, but he works hard.
He does our photography and also has a little business with his other “brothers” selling cokes, food, etc. He is “always smiling and happy” and never criticizes or talks bad about anyone. He is such a sweet kid, and we love him so much! He loves God, he loves people… and especially the kids here at our Love A Child Children’s Home!
