Saqueo is a 17-year-old young man who first came to our clinic last summer with large growths on both his cheek and arm.  Ten years ago, pustules formed in both locations and began weeping pus and growing slowly over time.  He had a biopsy conducted, and the results indicated that the growths were not tumors!  Praise God!  However, he became quite discouraged (even to the point of wanting to take his own life) when he was told by various doctors and dermatologists that nothing could be done for him here in Guatemala and that he would have to live with the daunting appearance of the growths for the rest of his life.  Despite the odds, we were able to encourage Saqueo to attend one last appointment with another specialist before the year 2011 drew to a close.  That specialist scheduled and performed a successful surgery, and now Saqueo is self-confident young man who fully believes in the healing power of our Lord and Savior!  Below are the before and after photos of Saqueo's treatment process.
