It will be a double celebration for the Raravisa family in Tamavua as they will be celebrating Christmas and their eldest daughter Adi Vasemaca Raravisa's successful heart surgery done at the Sri Sai Sanjeevani Children’s Hospital.

Ratu Jone Raravisa says Vasemaca had a hole in her heart which was discovered by the Sai Sanjeevani staff during her heart screening in the middle of this year.

He says they are thankful to Sai Sanjeevani Hospital for the successful free heart surgery conducted on his daughter.

Ratu Jone says when they first heard about the news from the medical team at Sai Sanjeevani, his family felt sad and worried because losing a child is a painful thing but they had hope that free surgeries are also provided at the hospital.

He thanked the medical team from overseas and the team at Sai Sanjeevani for the brilliant work that they do in serving the children and giving them another gift of life.
