Better now, but still very sick

Later in the day the baby was more responsive and alert. That was a very good sign; an encouraging point during a very difficult day. We asked the mother to bring him back the following two days so we could make sure he was improving. Even in the second day his nose was running, signs of lessened dehydration.

Here he is held by his grandmother.
