Xiaoxiao
Cross Care team #2 recently visited Xiaoxiao, a young boy staying at the hospital for emergency treatment for a blood infection.
The doctors said that Xiaoxiao’s blood test results did not look optimistic. The team felt very emotional as they listened to Xiaoxiao’s mother sharing about her son’s poor health.
“We could see she was very distraught,” they said.
His mother was staying by Xiaoxiao’s bedside day and night. She did not want to give up hope and kept searching for other possible treatments for her son. But due to financial restraints, she had decided to stay at the hospital near their home.
Over a week later, when Xiaoxiao was discharged from the hospital, our team went for a home visit and provided a wheelchair to help with his mobility.
Cross Care team continues to follow up with the family and assist them in seeking the appropriate medical care for Xiaoxiao.
— ICC Medical Fund Report (2nd Quarter 2021)
Each year, young people in ICC programmes face medical needs that require your support. Often impoverished families have no ability to provide the treatment that their child needs. In our care centres, children with complex medical needs require special attention in order to survive and thrive.
By contributing to our Medical Fund, you can ensure that babies who require special care receive all the support they need, and that medical challenges won’t stand in the way of a young person achieving their potential.
By making a monthly donation to the ICC Medical Fund, you will be assisting many young people throughout the year, and you’ll receive quarterly reports on the impact you’ve had through this programme. Or start with a single donation, and see the results of your compassion.
