Salma
weighed just 12 lbs., struggled to breathe and was too weak to eat when
she arrived at a Save the Children health clinic in rural Ethiopia.

Health Workers quickly referred Salma for immediate treatment for
pneumonia and malnutrition at a Stabilization Center for sick and
at-risk children. |

Within two
days, Salma began to improve. Her feeding tube was removed and she could
take milk again. After eight days, she could sit up by herself and eat
Plumpy’Nut® — a highly nutritious ready-to-eat
peanut paste.

Salma’s
health and strength were completely restored by the time she was
discharged 12 days later. Her mother, Barey, could not contain her joy
and gratefulness for Salma’s care and survival. |

When Save
the Children staff visited Salma for a 5-month check-up, they discovered
a healthy, happy 2-year-old and a thankful family filled with renewed
hope for the future —thanks to thoughtful friends like you.
