Another such case was a 13-year-old girl called Devika. Her father is employed in a tea shop, so the family (which includes three girls) is very poor, and we have helped with the cost of Devika’s medication for some time. She has cerebellar tonsillar ectopia, a malformation of the brain, which can be very serious. She will need another MRI scan shortly, which will cost about £80, something that the family cannot afford. I left a GBP50 contribution from HHI’s supporters which will enable this to be done. (Previous scans were financed by loans from a credit union we support.
