Thanks to you Lidia and her sister Liliana are cured from leprosy! 17 year old Liliana (pictured right) lives with her mother and 8 other siblings in Timor Leste. Their father passed away some time ago. They didn’t know about leprosy. So when they had skin patches they didn’t know what it was. Until Leprosy Mission health workers visited their house. It was only then Liliana and her sister were both diagnosed with leprosy. The health workers gave them Multi-Drug Therapy (MDT) which they have been taking for five months now. Usually over the course of 12 months, a person affected by leprosy can be cured. In fact, within 48 hours of beginning the treatment they are no longer infectious and pose no threat of passing on the disease to those around them. But Lidia experienced leprosy reaction. So she had to take the steroid Prednisone as well as MDT. “I felt sad because I didn’t think that we could get leprosy”, said Lidia. “I thought it was a very bad disease. But the doctor told us that we needed to take medication or we would get a disability. When I first started the treatment I felt very dizzy and I started vomiting. I was admitted to hospital for a week, but then I got used to the medication. Now, thanks to the treatment my nodules are gone, but my skin is still dark from the MDT.” “I stopped going to school last year because I felt unwell,” added Liliana. “I had swelling in my face and in my arms and legs. I am getting better now and I want to go back to school when I am well again.” Lidia is studying at University to become a teacher. “I want to learn and I want to be a teacher so I can have a better life.” Liliana received further support with food and school tuition. Leprosy Mission workers also met with her teacher and explained leprosy and that Liliana was not contagious. Lidia wants tell to supporters like you: “I’m happy that you’ve supported The Leprosy Mission’s work in Timor Leste. Because of your support, people affected by leprosy get attention from the government and our health services are strengthened. But there are still others who need to get treatment. Thank you very much for your help.” $ 20 Counselling 11573 Counselling at our hospitals helps people affected by leprosy overcome feelings of rejection due to discrimination and stigma. $ 360 Cure Package 12649 Transform the life of one person affected by leprosy.
