Sunshine Action~贈醫施藥 Medical Missions

CHINA

Since 2012, Sunshine Action started sponsorship for operation of children with 先天性心臟病 - CONGENITAL HEART DISEASE in China.

據資料顕示，全世界平均有千分之七人口患有各種類型先天性心臟病人，而中國在比例上更高達千分之八，若以中國十三億人口算，患有此類疾病之人則過千萬，而此龐大數字不能不說不驚人。

在此龐大而患有先天性心臟病之人口中，除了一小部份家庭富裕有能力為患者從小根治其病源外，其餘的、特別是農村貧困家庭根本無此能力籌募一筆高達數萬元之醫藥、手術費為孩子治病，而此批患疾兒童之壽命短暫可以想像，亦為此而動起我們這群有志於----做得多少就多少----之志同道合籌委們發為患有先天性心臟病兒童籌募一筆善款以根除他們之隱疾。

先天性心臟病（簡稱先心病）是胎兒時期心臟血管發育異常而形成的先天畸形，是小兒最常見的心臟病.先心病的發病率約為出生活產嬰的7～8%，未經治療者約34%可在1個月內死亡，50%在1歲內死亡，生後早期死亡者多為復雜畸形或病情較重者。各類先心病中以室間隔缺損最多，其次是動脈導管未閉、法樂氏四聯症和房間隔缺損。

先天性心臟病主要是由於胎兒時期心臟發育的障礙所引起。其主要原因可分為環境和遺傳因素兩類。環境因素是指孕婦懷孕時接受過量輻射、患德國麻疹感染或糖尿病以及在懷孕時使用某些葯物等，引致胎兒患有先天性心臟病。另外如果染色體異常,例如唐氏綜合症的小朋友，患先天性心臟病的機會也會較高，遺傳因素是指有家族史的家庭，他們生下的嬰兒發生先天性心臟病的機會比較高。不過大部份病例都是找不到原因的。

A congenital heart defect (CHD) is a defect in the structure of the heart and great vessels which is present at birth. Many types of heart defects exist, most of which either obstruct blood flow in the heart or vessels near it, or cause blood to flow through the heart in an abnormal pattern. Other defects, such as long QT syndrome, affect the heart's rhythm. Heart defects are among the most common birth defects and are the leading cause of birth defect-related deaths. Approximately 9 people in 1000 are born with a congenital heart defect. Some complex congenital heart defects require medication or surgery.

Most of the time CHD is serious and requires surgery and/or medications. Medications include diuretics, which aid the body in eliminating water, salts, etc... for strengthening the contraction of the heart. This slows the heartbeat and removes some fluid from tissues. Some defects require surgical procedures to restore circulation back to normal and in some cases, multiple surgeries are needed. Interventional cardiology now offers patients minimally invasive alternatives to surgery

危有所濟病有所醫德蘭修女：「愛必須付諸行動，而具體的行動就是服務。」
Mother Teresa, “Love has to be put into action and that action is service.”

「仁德之光」是由一群熱心社會服務的基督徒所註冊成立的中醫醫療慈善機構，致力為貧困窮無依、年老傷殘、長期病患者，提供免費中醫醫療援助，贈醫施藥予急需的貧苦大眾。

香港醫療費用日益攀升，對饔餐不繼的患者來說，更是百上加斤，難以應付高昂的醫療費用，最後只能讓病情惡化下去。「仁德之光」的成立冀望能協助他們緩解未能適時就醫的困境，免受貧病煎熬，及身心痛苦。

In cooperation with Ta Ku Ling Kei Lok Com. Assoc. 打鼓嶺耆樂會社, we are providing free Chinese Medical Consultation and medicine to the poorest elderly twice a week.

INDIA

MISSIONARIES of CHARITY - PREM NAGAR LEPROSY CENTRE - SEEMAPURI

Sunshine Action visited the Leprosy Centre and sponsored a medical instrument specialized for the operation. The Centre cover 250 Leprosy patients, all abandoned by their families.

Nearly 90% of 5 million prevailing leprosy patients in India are neglected by their own families and society.
40 to 50% survive by begging in streets or roadside, and some who are fortunate enough take shelter in missionaries and NGO run homes.

Lack of information about leprosy cure and absence of hospitals in rural villages many are deprived of proper medications.
