Matias pre-surgery with subarachnoid cyst

Matias was just a one year-old when his aunt, a pediatric resident at Miami Children’s Hospital, asked Child Foundation Charity to help her nephew from Peru. At his first year checkup in Peru, the doctor noticed that his head was larger than usual. After an MRI, he was diagnosed with a subarachnoid cyst and two subdural hematomas.

CFC contributed $5,000 towards the craniotomy that saved Matias’s life. He is now a happy, thriving and growing 3 year-old toddler attending preschool in Peru.
