Daud before surgery.
Daud, a seven year old Indonesian boy, came to the clinic in the evening
in the back of a pick-up truck. He was badly burned down his right leg
and was very scared. His parents knew he needed to get treatment but
they had few options. He was burned in a hot water spill. Esther Scarborough
recommended they remove all the injured skin and put on a sterile wraps
and a splint. She told the parents this would be very painful but that
they must allow her to clean up his wounds. His parents agreed and the
wounds were cleaned amidst his cries and screams. He went through a lot
to get the wounds clean. He received gentle and loving care.
Duad is a great little guy. He has a way of getting into your heart.
He has an infectious laugh. He has been through therapy and receives
regular changing of his sterile wraps. He was improving and was even
walking and running. He goes home for several days and then comes back
to the clinic. He came back to the clinic with a bad infection. His burned
leg was now looking pretty good until he got this bad infection. The
infection was possibly gangrene--everyone was really concerned. It required
the dead flesh to be cut out and he is being cared for by our staff.
He is back to his fun self. The staff is happy to see him improve.
Daud recovers after treatment.
