HARARE, Zimbabwe 28 October 2008 Two-year-old Appreciate lies in a bed at the at Harare Central Hospital. At just under 10 kg, he shows many signs of severe malnutrition: a swollen stomach, dry scaly skin and hollow, sunken eyes. Luckily, his mother, Revai Ndoro, was quick to see the pending danger and took him to the hospital. He was immediately referred to their Therapeutic Feeding Centre, where he was diagnosed as suffering from the syndrome known as kwashiorkor characterized by skin and hair changes and oedema. He has not been growing at all, said his mother. For the last three days, he was bedridden, moaning in pain and breathing heavily. Harare Central Hospital is one of approximately 70 Therapeutic Feeding Centres being supported by UNICEF in Zimbabwe. Each day, about 15 children are admitted to the hospital with severe malnutrition. To read the full story, visit: http://www.unicef.org/infobycountry/zimbabwe_46161.html
