H is recovering much better than we anticipated. he is lucid and can communicate with folks. even more exciting, he recognizes people. a friend went to visit and recounted a story of someone sending him a card with 10,000 shillings in it. he nicked the money and then passed it off to someone else urging her to bring him back chapattis. that always makes me smile. he still can’t use his legs and is in some pain, but him carrying on conversations is amazing under the circumstances.

Have you thought of writing a travel novel or a memoir that is a compilation of your blog posts? I was right there with you after that boy picked your pocket and felt refreshed as you took me to the ocean and relaxation. I’m happy that you got your phone without the drama and understand that feeling unfocused rage that needs as outlet. So happy that you found your respite and the reminder of the sweetness of humanity

I hope H healing has progressed since last month, and will certainly keep him in my prayers. Thank you for being so willing to share your private concerns with the world via this blog.

have you read, Cutting for Stone? You probably don’t need to as you are living it.. but I just finished it and it includes a plot line based on treating fistula in african hospitals…

So sorry for your friend and know that he is in my prayers for a speedy and full recovery and God’s Will. It seems you have had several friends in need of healing in the last few months. Prayers for all of you and families. “Thy Name is my healing, O my God, and remembrance of Thee is my remedy. Nearness to Thee is my hope and love for Thee is my companion. Thy mercy to me is my healing and my succor in both this world and the world to come. Thou verily art the All-Bountiful, theAll-Knowing, the All-Wise.”

I ask why did it have to be this way, and yet in all I am thankful for the fact that it happened when H had people around him that cared and loved him like self.
In the midst of it all, I am reminded that though sorrows may last the night, Joy surely comes in the morning.
Drawn back to the time when I first believed. I hang on to the promise that I have a maker who formed my heart, He knows my name, He sees each tear that falls and hears me when I call.
Therefore, in the midst of hopelesness, I hope that the Sun will shine again: on the H’s family, on those lost in the same manner but more that Little Big sis and TQ stand firm and push on to the end
