Janina waits patiently in the pre-op area

Janina is a 2 ½ year-old child from a small town three hours outside of Quito. She was a little over one year old when her mother noticed that she was falling more than other children her age and experiencing pain when she tried to walk. Shortly after, Janina was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and had her first operation here at Hospital Padre Carollo. When the family discovered another surgery was required, they were referred to CAMTA. Her mother and her uncle stated that Janina is the centre of their universe, and CAMTA has helped return hope and joy into their home.
