THE RIGHT MILK · THE RIGHT TIME

The Milk Arrived Right When Ana Needed It

Two weeks earlier, Ana had been sent home because the hospital didn’t have the therapeutic milk she needed.

Ana’s parents had already brought her to the hospital once.

Using what they’d learned through Saving Moses nutrition training and an MUAC tape—a simple measuring band used to identify babies and toddlers at risk of malnutrition—they recognized the danger.

Now, two weeks later, they’d returned, and Ana was battling severe acute malnutrition.

Then, the Saving Moses truck arrived.

Before the shipment was even fully unloaded, medical workers opened a can of F-75 and prepared Ana’s first feeding with therapeutic milk designed to help stabilize a severely malnourished baby’s fragile body.

15 Days Later, Ana Went Home

The following week, Ana progressed to a thicker F-100 therapeutic milk as her body began to recover.

Just 15 days after treatment began, Ana had gained enough strength to leave the hospital in her parents’ arms.

Her father described the fear families like his carry:

“Parents arrive with arms full of their babies and hearts full of hope…only to return home with empty arms and hearts heavy with sorrow.”

That didn’t happen to Ana.

Because the milk was there when she needed it.

The right milk at the right time!
The right milk at the right time!

The Next Baby Shouldn’t Have to Wait

Ana’s story had a joyful ending.

But lifesaving treatment shouldn’t depend on a truck arriving at exactly the right moment.

Your generosity helps Saving Moses provide early malnutrition screening, practical nutrition education, and specialized therapeutic milk so hospitals and clinics can be ready when vulnerable babies and toddlers arrive.

Help put the right milk in place before the next Ana needs it.
