    The little one awaiting heart surgery… what does she need to be able to have her surgery?

    She is on a waiting list to get out of Haiti to get the surgery done. The Haiti hospital needs to find a surgeon and hospital willing to operate for free or low-cost. She needs a host family around the accepting hospital to care for her. She will need to get her Haitian passport and a medical visa to the country that would be accepting her. There are many children in need of cardiac surgeries here in Haiti so the chances are slim that she will have this opportunity.
