Seven and Flying Solo.

This young boy, from a small village in the central Rupununi, was evacuated to Georgetown for orthopeadic surgery along with two other emergency patients last week .... with no parent or guardian available to travel with him. The relevant Ministries of Health and Amerindian Affairs have had to take up the slack and RAM hopes to fly him home tomorrow. His buddies are sure to hear some fantastic tales of adventures in the big city. There was no immediate word on why one of the parents, most likely subsistence farmers, could not make the trip.
