“When the CHV referred me to take my child to the hospital for further management, I was very reluctant until she had to threaten me that she was going to inform the authorities. I later reluctantly accepted to go to the hospital where I was educated on how to take care of the baby and was also given the fortified porridge powder. My child was too thin and wasted that I could not travel with him anywhere BUT after giving the fortified porridge for only a week, the child gained weight and became very bright that even the father started carrying the child and even going with him outside the house. I am very grateful to the support and urge all women to utilize the available health service.”

“Before I met the CHV who referred me to the health facility, my child’s head was very unstable BUT after attending several sessions in the hospital- I am very happy that my child neck is now stable and she is trying to stand on her own.”
