Meet six-year-old Lensley from Haiti. He is known to be quiet and shy but is very close to his mother and two sisters. "Lensley was born with a condition called patent ductus arteriosus, in which a hole within the heart that normally closes once a baby is born remains open," the Haiti Cardiac Alliance (HCA) tells us. "As a result, blood bypasses the lungs and travels back to the body without oxygen, leaving him weak and out of breath." A surgical procedure can rectify this, but it will need to be done in the United States. "Following surgery, Lensley's heart should be completely normal, and he should not experience any ongoing cardiac symptoms or have any need for further surgery," HCA writes. Open Hearts Haiti has provided $5000 to fund this treatment, but $1500 is still needed to cover the cost of Lensley's transport overseas. Let's come together and cover the remaining expense of getting Lensley the help he needs.
