Christine’s story is one that is all too common in Haiti. Her mom struggled to find enough food to feed Christine each day. Not only was quantity an issue, but quality. In Haiti, sources of protein are often expensive and thus are often excluded from a regular diet, causing swelling.

By providing good nutrition such as fortified medical grade peanut butter, Christine quickly lost the water weight associated with the swelling She began to put on healthy weight. We hardly recognized her a month after she came in, so great was the change in her entire body!

Christine has now returned to her amazed family. Haiti Children's Home has followed up with her family and are happy to report she is thriving at home and in school!
