Baby saved from flesh-eating condition

Blessing with her daughter Sangai in the hospital

A five month-old girl named Sangai, who needed urgent medical treatment for a flesh-eating condition, has been saved by a Mission Aviation Fellowship pilot in Liberia.

Little Sangai was also suffering from hydrocephalus – a build-up of fluid on the brain. The condition, if left untreated, can damage brain tissue.

Fortunately, if treated, both conditions are curable. But healthcare in the Liberian countryside is extremely limited, leaving Sangai’s life in the balance.
