There is no greater offence to our sense of humanity than to see people who have been so deliberately and barbarically disfigured. When we were first confronted with victims of mutilation, some of whom had had their lips cut off, we quickly realized that reconstructive surgery would help enable them to regain some quality of life. The MSF team will also provide counseling so that these patients can learn to live with these horrifying experiences. |
