Diana Heshimwe is a young girl who, together with her sister, faced deep neglect and suffering. She was in urgent need of medical care, protection, and support when she was identified by authorities.
Her condition was alarming—malnourished, with brown hair and cracked skin, signs of prolonged hunger and poor nutrition. Diana’s father had been hospitalized, leaving no one to provide for the family. Her mother, who is mentally handicapped, was unable to care for her children, leaving Diana vulnerable and without a caregiver.
The Chief of Iria-ini North Location, Othaya, referred Diana’s case to ensure her safety. She was later brought to Shiphrah Centre, where she received urgent medical attention, proper meals, and the care she had long been deprived of.
