When I left the Amazon, I went to Lima, where I met up with Francesco and his wife, Birgit, for dinner. In the course of our conversation, I told him of the young girl. I also told him that several of the passengers on board had expressed interest in helping her, if someone could handle the logistics. Francesco oversaw all arrangements, transferring the girl—who was six at the time, and whose name is Doris—down the Amazon to Iquitos, and then to Lima, along with her father. After numerous medical consultations, the operation on her tongue was performed. Francesco footed the entire bill. Doris has made a full recovery and is back with her family in Hatum Posa.
