Margaretta

IFC/Hohidiai is the only help some find in their most desperate time of need. Tiny Margaretta came to our clinic with her parents. She was born with deformed eyelids (see photo). Her parents were asking for help and did not know where to turn. The staff examined her and knew she needed surgery to repair her eyelids.

She was sent to surgery in hopes of improving her appearance and saving the sight in her one functioning eye. The surgery was a success—especially because her sight was saved. We all know how precious it is to have sight. This is one example of the blessing and honor of giving hope to those who come asking us for help.
