Mirriam N., 17

Miriam is a hardworking girl, both at school and at home, always ready to assist wherever she can. She dreams of becoming an air hostess in the future. She enjoys eating chapati and drinking juice. Recently, Miriam was brought to the hospital by her mother with complaints of persistent abdominal pains and loss of appetite. These symptoms had lasted for the past four days. Miriam had not sought medical attention earlier because her family did not have the money for a hospital visit; her parents are casual laborers who work on neighborhood farms for daily wages, but they had not been able to find work for the past few weeks. Her headteacher noticed Miriam's condition and informed her parents about Helpster Charity, which enabled them to bring Miriam to the hospital for the necessary medical care.
