Ms. Loven found the boy in January 2016 while working for a charity in Africa. Hope was two years old, and was incredibly sick. He was naked, eating off scraps and had somehow managed to keep himself alive.
Anja, on seeing the condition of the boy got unexplainably emotional. She bent down to remove the scraps he was eating, and started feeding the poor soul. The picture that got viral was her giving him water from a bottle to which the toddler. It was heartbreaking to see the picture of the child in such a terrible condition.
Ms. Loven and her team right away decided to rush Hope to the hospital, and we couldn’t thank her less. The doctors diagnosed Hope with multiple deficiency diseases, the major one being his stomach riddled with numerous worms and had little to no red blood cell formation. With proper medication and multiple blood transfusions, his stomach finally got rid of the worms, and his body was circulating blood quite well.
