In view of human need
On their excursion through the world of Diospi Suyana, our TV-people from Lima naturally also stop at the orthopaedic workshop. Here they can hear one case study after another from Christian Haupt about how adults and children were given back their independence through the fitting of prostheses. And the impact doesn’t stop with prosthetics.
When I say hello, the master shows me a kind of plastic helmet for a baby’s head. “The toddler suffers from a malformation of the head,” Christian tells me, “with this external form we can steer the growth in an orderly fashion!” I am very impressed. “The file for the 3D print was sent to me by a colleague I met at the trade fair the other day!”
Directly behind the orthopaedic center, a hibiscus bush has completely penetrated the neighboring tree. The red flowers are still visible in the upper crown. An infiltration that fascinates the attentive observer. Figuratively speaking, every grateful patient at the Diospi Suyana hospital carries good news to the 24 states of Peru. In the midst of suffering, the blossoms of joy, hope and love shine everywhere /KDJ
