12. AFLK Bourse – General Information
• Case Marie and his son Gorgui Ndiaye:
– This baby has 5 months old and he was diagnosed hydrocephalus. Supported at FANN hospital thanks to the
AFLK Bourse, we brought the mother and child in a private structure to perform a scan of the head of the
child. An hour later we had the results that have shown that the child suffers from another disease
contracted through the mother. The chief doctor in the emergency calls for serology tests for syphilis and
toxoplasmosis are carried out on the mother. He is afraid that the mother and / or the father of the child are
infected.
The father has refused to support the child. The father's family considered the child has a child of the devil
because of his hydrocephalus. The family's father had stolen the child to abandon / sacrifice him in the
forest. It took all the determination of the mother for the child to be brought back.
The situation of the mother is even more difficult than she is 17 years old. She lives with her grandmother
who is not working. To bring her child for consultation at the hospital, she sells her own clothes each time.
More difficult, still talking with her, she told me she had no baby bottle because broken during the trip to the
hospital for 2 days ago, she had no milk for the baby. The only solution was for her to give the baby a
porridge Which formally prohibited by the doctors.
– Knowing the background, AFLK has decided to cover all expenses ( Bought Valves, Hospitalization, Baby
bottle and clothes, Prescription and the cure of antibiotics)
– 10 after ( March 8th 2012 ) the hospitalization and the first surgery, the result are positif. The infection is
getting reduced by the antibiotics and the head is reducing in size. In this coming 5 to 7 days a new
intervention will be scheduled for the implementation of the Valve.
