Long road to recovery for young Somalia girl

DHOBLEY – Eight months ago, few people had hope that Naima Mohamed Baale would live. The two-year-old had tipped over a pot of boiling water that was on a fire at the family’s home in Hosingo town, Jubaland State.

By the time her mother got to her, Naima had been severely scalded and was in excruciating pain. Doctors said she suffered burns to 45 percent of her body which, at her tender age, was life threatening.

The father, Mohamed Baale, said he first took Naima to Dhobley General Hospital but given how extensive the burns were, he nearly lost hope. It broke his heart, nonetheless, to see his little girl suffer with what must have been indescribable pain as she was undergoing treatment at the hospital. Unfortunately, Dhobley General Hospital lacked expertise in the treatment and management of severe burns.

“When I brought her to Dhobley General Hospital she was in a very critical condition and I thought I was going to lose her. The first three months she was in hospital were the worst. I almost gave up on her,” the father says.
