Father Christmas would love to visit Cayetano Heredia Hospital in Lima, Peru this year to put a big smile on the kids faces who suffer with Chronic Kidney Disease and Renal Failure. Most of these kids are between 0 and 10 years old and live in poverty and some of them do not even have a family to support them financially and emotionally. The pain they have to go through daily is devastating, however these kids are strong enough to keep fighting courageously and love living life.

Many of these amazing children do not know they will pass away but before it is too late, lets put a smile on their beautiful faces

A year ago, my aunt Betzabeth Rosas, who lives in Lima, Peru, lost her mum due to Chronic Kidney Disease and Renal Failure. Her mum fought for her life for a year. The painful dialysis and other expensive treatments were too much for her mum until one day, her kidneys couldn't take it anymore. Betzabeth always stayed with her mum at the hospital where she not only saw her mum suffering from this awful disease but also saw many babies and children suffer as well. When her mum passed away, Betzabeth decided to do something for these kids and she started an organisation called "Queremos Verte Sonreir" ("We want to see you Smile") where she not only raised money for them but also received all types of donations like medicines and toys. This Chirstmas I would like to help my aunt Betzabeth and her team to keep putting a smiles on these kids faces who deserve to be happy.
