Luka was abandoned at a gas station in Lusaka. He suffers from cerebral palsy and cannot hear or see. He does, however, respond to physical stimuli and loves cuddling up to his caregivers. Here at Kasisi, he will have no shortage of love.
Luka has grown a lot. He has a mature voice. He receives daily rehabilitation, but there has been little improvement.
He exercises daily in the physiotherapy room. He is unable to sit or stand on his own. The boy just lies down. The exercises are to help prevent his condition from getting worse. In addition to physiotherapy, we place him in a special chair several times a day. He is very sensitive to touch and immediately reacts by tensing his whole body. There have been no other health problems with him recently.

Santa Claus never had it easy in Kasisi 😉 Over 230 children live here. Sister Mariola has already rushed to his aid and is quietly preparing presents!
Many of us still leave a free seat at the Christmas Eve table. Let one of our children sit at it this year (at a distance, but very much for real) and invite them to the table today!
