After being treated for a severe fever and a common cold for several weeks, one-year-old Shawn Debideen was finally transferred from the Mabaruma Hospital to the Georgetown Public Hospital when a lump started to develop in the left side of his stomach.
According to the child’s mother, Donna Debideen, of Hotoquai Hill, Region One, Shawn had not fallen ill until mid-July when he fell from a chair, hitting his head.
