This little baby girl was born in Panajachel on Friday night. Her family has been feeding her through a dropper with sugar water. We have provided the family with formula today and will be sending the baby to the clinic to see the pediatrician so that she can advise the family how to best care for the baby.
Thanks to a very generous grant from a Swiss Foundation we will be able to provide food for this little baby through the Infant Feeding Project of the Food and Milk Program.
