There were few cleft babies in our stateside program over the years who were more photogenic than little Alex. Under the loving care of his KY foster parents, Jay and Kim from Simpsonville, Alex grew into a chubby, happy baby who was well-nourished for his surgical repair (donated by Dr. Andy Moore in Lexington,KY.)
Alex has been home with his parents in Guatemala for three years now. He is shown here in a photo taken yesterday, when his mother went to Mayan Families in Panajachel, Guatemala to receive this donated food.
It was a great Mother's Day gift for foster mom Kim to see Alex looking so healthy.
Many thanks to all the great staff at Mayan Families for continuing to meet this child's needs.
