Meet Wildiesta. She is two-years-old, and lives with her parents, grandparents, and siblings in Haiti. “She is very close to her family, but tends to be shy and afraid of strangers (especially doctors!),” shares our medical partner Haiti Cardiac Alliance (HCA). Wildiesta was born with a heart condition called partial atrioventricular canal defect, more commonly referred to as a hole in the heart. The condition deprives her body of the oxygen it needs, and leaves Wildiesta sick and fatigued. It also slows her growth and development, and if left treated, could be fatal. For $1,500, Wildiesta will receive heart surgery that will allow her to lead a normal and healthy life. “Ever since Wildiesta was born, we have been hoping for surgery for her- we are so happy she is getting her chance!” says her mother. Let’s make it happen!
