Husband Abandons Family Over Childs Health

The man is said to have disappeared after learning that it would require about Ksh 1M for the condition to be corrected.

The child, Runniez Chepkorir suffers from complete Aurical-Ventrical Canal defect, a condition that requires corrective surgery in India.

She was discovered to have a breathing problem when she was 4 months old and this turned to be pain and rejection for 23year old Winnie Chepngetich.

The ten months baby is said to be experiencing strain when breathing and rarely sleeps.

The child is underweight and sweats profusely if not crying.

The father of the child is alleged to have switched off his phone and disappeared after receiving the news.

The mother of the child is now appealing for assistance as she is faced with double dilemmas over the whereabouts of his husband and the condition of the child.
