This is little Kwelyon. He is the boy that needs lots of prayer. We sent him to a local NGO pediatric hospital on friday until a neuro surgeon sees him in a few weeks. He is doing better.
This is little Eddie. He was burnt at 1 month old by a mosquito net catching on fire while he slept. He has had skin grafts to his eyes and scalp. His scalp was severely burnt. He will need a lot of surgery in the future to release the tight tissue but for now he at least doesn`t have horrible open wounds!. He is a beautiful baby that brings tears to my eyes. He is cuddly and loves to touch your face. His mum Fatu is sassy. She is all of 19. She was in school before he was born and loved to play basketball. She has no one to teach her how to be a mum. She has loved the supportive environment of the ward and will miss it a lot she said!. She insisted on Eddie having a photo with Michael too :). I have been trying for days to upload more photos without success!.
I am looking forward to sailing now!
I will miss Liberia but I feel like our goodbyes are done. It is time for rest and recuperation and then time to take Hope and Healing to a new country!. God was here before we came and he will be here after we are gone. We are merely his hands and feet wherever he sends us!.
