C. was born very prematurely. We paid for her neonatal care in the hospital, after which she lived with her parents, who are beggars in Hanoi. They did not care about her and sent her to live with her impoverished grandmother in the countryside. She is very committed to C. and has found a pre-school which will work with her to develop physically – she is now standing on her own and starting to walk! She talks very well for a 2-year-old, although she is malnourished and very small for her age.
