Babies Riana and Joanes benefit from the life-changing intervention of Benin鈥檚 Ponseti clinic.

A unique hospital ship offering life-saving surgery sets sail for the poorest of the poor in Africa. It has just one year to do the impossible 鈥� to provide the care these people cannot get any other way.

Mother of three Houefassi has a crushing tumour removed from her neck in a marathon nine-hour surgery, while babies Riana and Joanes benefit from the life-changing intervention of Benin鈥檚 Ponseti clinic. But the work of the Mercy Ships goes beyond the boundaries of the operating theatre and clinic. They strive to leave a lasting legacy and help build the capacity of Benin to meet its own health care needs.

Tha long ospadail sh貌nraichte a tha a鈥� toirt seachad obair-lannsa aig muir, a鈥� d猫anamh air na daoine as bochda ann an Afraga. Chan eil aca ach aon bhliadhna airson an obair do-dh猫anta seo a dh猫anamh 鈥� c霉ram a鈥� thoirt do dhaoine nach fhaigh e ann an 脿ite sam bith eile.

Tha Houefassi, aig a bheil tri霉ir chloinne, a鈥� tighinn a-steach airson obair-lannsa naoi uairean a th矛de air cnap m貌r air a h-amhaich. Cuideachd tha na naoidhein, Riana agus Joanes, a鈥� faighinn buannachd bho bhith a鈥� frithealadh clionaig Ponseti ann am Benin. Tha obair nan Luingean Lannsaireachd nas fharsaing na an t-se貌mar obair-lannsa agus an clionaig ged t脿. Tha iad cuideachd a鈥� feuchainn ri d矛leab mhaireannach fh脿gail, airson gum bi na daoine ann am Benin comasach air d猫iligeadh ri na feumalachdan sl脿inte san sg矛re aca fh猫in.
