Silvia needs medical attention.
Silvia is 15yrs old. She is in 4th grade last year but did not finish her studies because of an illness that has been plaguing her.
She has a lot of pain in the stomach and becomes very dizzy.
The doctors at the hospital could not find what is causing this without doing examinations.
The family cannot afford to pay for any medical attention.
It will cost approx. $200 US to be able to do the tests that the hospital is asking.
Last week Silvia became very ill, she started vomiting blood. She was released from hospital today but until the cause of her illness can be found, she has no treatment. She received medication to calm the vomiting and to stop the pain in her head.
Silvia's father, Victoriano is 47yrs old and works as a builders assistant. He earns $23 US a week. Maria is 45yrs old. She did not have the chance to go to school. She now works as a domestic in a private house and earns $3 US per day. She has suffered from a stroke and feels that it gives her a lot of head aches. She also has kidney stones that are causing her a lot of problems.
Silvia has two brothers and 5 sisters.
The money that the family earns is not enough to keep the family in food. They cannot afford to pay for medical treatment.
If anyone would like to help Silvia, please send a donation, no matter how small and mark it for Silvia Ajcot Solis.
