Darline has high blood pressure. She needed to be hospitalized recently for cardiovascular complications. The doctors treated her for five days, and then sent her home with medication to manage her hypertension.
Another significant way she can manage her heart health is through an improved diet. Nutritious, low-sodium foods are very scarce in Haiti right now. Darline needs assistance to access the foods she needs.
Her doctors want to follow up with her for nine months to monitor her heart.
Darline approached the Haiti South staff for help. They helped her draw up a budget for her treatment, medication, and dietary needs. Her budget comes to $2,863.21 CAD.
Like most adults in Haiti right now, Darline cannot maintain steady employment. This budget is far outside her means. Therefore, the Haiti South staff has requested assistance from Chalice.
Your support will cover the treatment and medication Darline has received to date, as well as follow-up treatment and medicine for 9 months. They have also included an amount for six months of supplementary food support.
