Pierre, 3, is a picture of health - but back in July, he was on the brink of death. Ongoing conflict in the Central African Republic has made finding food a daily struggle for Pierre’s family. Fearing for his son’s life, Pierre’s father, Prosper, walked 12 km to the nearest health centre. “When I was walking, I was praying on the way, I didn’t know if I was going to get to the hospital with Pierre alive.” The next day there was no sign that Pierre was getting better. He was almost unconscious because of severe dehydration caused by diarrhoea. Doctors, fearing he might die, referred him to Bangui Paediatric Hospital, the only facility of its kind in the Central African Republic. With the help of around the clock care, Pierre got a little stronger each day. After a month in the outpatient feeding programme Pierre has bounced back. He still clings to his father but he smiles again and laughs when he is placed in the bucket that weighs him at the health centre. “Children like Pierre, who are severely malnourished but able to access health services are the lucky ones,” says Theophile Basimba, UNICEF Nutrition Specialist in Bangui. “It is heartbreaking to see the continual stream of children coming in to the hospital and gut wrenching to think about those who we can’t reach with care.” Help children like Pierre by donating today. Time is running out for the 43,000 children who will suffer from severe malnutrition in Central African Republic in 2019.
