We are most grateful to Niños Incapacitados for helping a number of children from the San Pedro Itzicán area.  (Niños Incapacitados help families with children who are chronically or severely sick, and reimburse medical expenses, tests, medications and transport to get them to the Hospital Civil or other services in Guadalajara). 

​

On their first visit, Anita Torres, drives the families to the Niños Clinic in Chapala and back, and explains the process they have to follow in order to get medical reimbursements.  It's the most helpful way for the families and for them to understand the process - but it takes up Anita's time and gas money for the truck too. 

 

It's not easy to get to the Niños clinic by bus, and sometimes the bus driver won't allow the child on the bus - so it's all challenging. Niños Incapacitados accepts children up to the age of 17.
