    Dear lenders,
    This is Analin Saturria McGregor with Zidisha's Communications team.
    Irene has written to us to let us know that sadly, her young baby has been admitted to the hospital and this is the reason behind her being late on her loan repayments. We are glad she can get her baby the necessary medical attention and hope treatment is effective.
