Both of the photos above were taken by my friend Danielle. Since the kids are on summer break right now, they're around the Hogar all day unless they need to go to the hospital, which means they request to be taken to the park all the time. Luckily it's pretty close by and the kids are pretty good at entertaining themselves!
The first picture is of Lisbeth, a five-year-old girl with cerebral palsy. She was here when I volunteered last year as well, and she's matured and healed so much! The eye patch is just to help her lazy eye- nothing too serious! The kids have nicknamed her Abuelita (grandmother) because she looks like a little old woman with her crutch and eye patch. And check out those pink glasses- I can't get over how cute she looks in them.
Below her is Segundo, a little boy who has pins in one leg; I believe to lengthen it. He was also here on my last trip. He is one of the quieter little boys, and generally much better behaved than some of the others!
That's all for today, thanks for reading!
