Bundibugyo district, Western Uganda is overwhelmed by the high cases of malnutrition among the babies and mothers, something that requires an immediate intervention to save the lives of hundreds battling with the disease in Bundibugyo hospital and in the communities.
Most people in Bundibugyo have preferred growing cocoa than food crops to improve their income.
This has become a big challenge thus contributing to the high number of malnourished children in the remote district of Western Uganda.
According to the Nutrition Focal Person Bundibugyo Hospital Rosset Kabafumu, the malnutrition among the children is caused by the poor standards of leaving and abandoning of the cultivation of the food crops.
She narrates that most of the mothers are single mothers and majority of the house wives depend on cultivating cocoa instead of growing crops for food consumption.
Kabafumu adds that in the months of June, July and August 2018, the hospital received high cases of malnutrition adding that this happens when Cocoa season is off.
She explains that most single parents donโt have money to cater for their children while others have the tendency of winning off their children early enough to prepare for the next pregnancy
Most of the malnourished clients received at the hospital are children and adults most of them are HIV Positive and chronic illnesses but for the children they have 2 types of malnutrition either sever and moderate acute malnutrition adding that of the children admitted in the wars are malnourished with some complications
Nyombi Frank hailing from Kabale village Bundibugyo district who was attending his 2-year-old daughter Namukasa Peace explains that the mother abandoned the child at home when he was away for work.
He is appealing for support from the public and NGOs to bring back the life of his daughter.
Bundibugyo district is the largest producer of cocoa in Uganda, accounting for unprocessed beans worth UGX:90 billion annually.

Thanks for your post on this weblog. From my very own experience, there are times when softening upward a photograph may provide the digital photographer with an amount of an inspired flare. Many times however, this soft clouds isn’t exactly what you had under consideration and can sometimes spoil an otherwise good photograph, especially if you anticipate enlarging them.

I’ve been surfing on-line greater than 3 hours today, yet I by no means discovered any interesting article like yours. It is pretty price sufficient for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made good content material as you probably did, the net can be much more helpful than ever before.

Thanks for the concepts you discuss through this site. In addition, a lot of young women that become pregnant don’t even try and get medical care insurance because they dread they won’t qualify. Although some states now require that insurers present coverage no matter what about the pre-existing conditions. Prices on these kinds of guaranteed plans are usually larger, but when considering the high cost of health care bills it may be some sort of a safer strategy to use to protect a person’s financial future.

Appreciate you for sharing these kind of wonderful posts. In addition, an excellent travel and medical insurance plan can often relieve those issues that come with vacationing abroad. A medical crisis can quickly become expensive and that’s sure to quickly decide to put a financial load on the family finances. Putting in place the suitable travel insurance program prior to leaving is definitely worth the time and effort. Thanks
