Jeremiah is new to this world and already fighting for his life. Born without an anal opening, his body cannot digest food properly. As a result, he cannot breastfeed without throwing up. Jeremiah's mother brought him to our partner hospital when he was just a few days old because she knew something was wrong. "It will just break her heart if he doesn't survive," our partner writes. A preliminary colostomy will help Jeremiah temporarily digest food until a posterior sagittal anorectoplasty procedure, a new technique used to repair anorectal malformations, will be performed to help Jeremiah eat and pass stool normally for the rest of his life. The only pediatric surgeon in the entire country of Tanzania will perform the procedure. For $1,200 Jeremiah can receive life-saving healthcare. Let's make it happen for him.
