He found her extremely malnourished, sick, and too weak to flee from the dangers of the street.

Esdras began her rehabilitation by addressing her most immediate physical needs, including a much-needed bath to cleanse her of the grime that marked her difficult past.
Surprisingly, Mila responded to her first bath with a sense of relief and relaxation, as if she understood that her life was taking a turn for the better.
“Mila is feeling much better. For the first time she was bathed, the shower gel made her skin so much softer and scented. The friendliness and gentleness are what we feel from Mila.” said Esdras
