HIV affected Family Builds New Life with Save the Children’s Support With a father who was a traditional healer, Hut Bros’s family had gained a special status and respect from other villagers living the same community, in a remote part of Siem Reap province. Sick people who could not afford modern, expensive medical treatment would come to his father to heal different illnesses, including fixing broken bones. So, it was an irony when his father fell sick from a mysterious disease that even he himself could not cure, nine years ago. He decided to go to the hospital and seek help from medical doctors. The diagnosis showed that his father had been infected with HIV which was already becoming full-blown AIDS. Soon after, his father died when Hut Bros was only 7 years old. |

Cambodian Students Ready for Race for Survival Some 120 Cambodian students have been selected from four primary schools in Siem Reap province to participate in the Race for Survival planned for October 11, 2012. The students were selected after preliminary races were conducted to select 30 top runners from each of the four schools – Wat Chak, Wat Po Banteaychey, Spean Chreav and Sras Srorng. The Race for Survival is a global marathon, which will see 20,000 children from 40 countries racing with the aim of beating the world record marathon (42.195km) time of 2h3m38s set by Patrick Makau. “I like racing, because it makes us healthy,” said 13-year-old Soun Noeun, who was selected from Wat Po Bantheaychey to join the race. Sam Kim Moun, his classmate who was the same age, agreed. “Racing makes our body strong and our brain smart,” she said. In Cambodia, children will be calling for its leaders to tackle child survival by placing a health worker in reach of every child, vaccines for all children and increasing access to nutritious foods. Sar Sarin, the teacher in charge of environment and sports at Wat Po Bantheaychey Primary School, said racing not only helped students stay healthy and strong but that it encouraged them to learn to work and live together. “If the students are healthy, they can also learn well,” he added. “This program [Race for Survival] is very good; I am grateful to Save the Children for organizing this.” |

She said it was until after midnight when the woman gave birth to a baby girl.
