When a child comes to Living Pearl Children’s Home, we have found that often, it is a journey of several months before they are healthy again. During their first days with us, we notice bits of bread in their pockets and under pillows.
They hide food because they don’t believe that tomorrow they will eat again. It takes them time to understand and trust that healthy meals and snacks are prepared every day.
As time passes, they begin to choose what to eat and they learn what foods they like and others they don’t.
This makes us happy! It’s a cause for celebration because it’s a sign that a child is satisfied and healthy!
