Grahame, thanks for the quick response. Yes, we are aware of, and have the details of the child's medical history. He has basically been hospitalized since birth (4 months). His main problem is a heart condition, which causes difficulty in breathing, fever, etc. He has been to a childrens hospital in Santo DOmingo for extended periods on two occasions, and now he has been in a hospital in Santiago for 1 month. The hospital itself, not including intensive care, may be free, but the parents are responsible for all medications, and analysis, which are expensive. It may sound crazy, but the mother had to actually look for a blood donar, and pay him for his blood for the baby. On another occasion, she purchased blood from another location.
I've seen the baby. He is basically the same weight now as when he was born. I know about scams, but this is not the case right now. Thanks for the advice.
