...rice-based solution through a tube in her nose. Weak as she is, patients like Sohag who make it to a hospital are the lucky ones. Most of them are treated and released within a few days, as her doctor expected Sohag would be. But many children never reach a treatment center and die from dehydration as they lose critical body fluids faster than they can be replaced.

But this misconception was soon debunked when D.A. helped a six-year-old girl open up her first savings account. And she didn’t just reach up to the teller window with her big brown eyes and her pink piggy bank full of pennies; she reached out with a child’s innocence and a lifetime’s savings of love. Unfortunately, D.A. took this love the wrong way and is no longer allowed within...
