Haggai’s story

Little Haggai, a baby girl from a remote mountain village in Papua New Guinea, came to Australia in the arms of her mother for emergency treatment for a massive facial disfigurement in June 2024. She is one of many children from Oceania whose lives have been changed forever by the work of ROMAC. 

It was an anxious and overwhelmed mother who brought her child to Australia, and a happy and confident one who returned home.

It was a little girl who had suffered since birth that arrived at Westmead Hospital, and a healthy one who departed.

That is the magic of ROMAC. Watch the video of Haggai’s story at https://bit.ly/3An6BiY.
