Picture of the Week

2008-3-28 030 

Meet Jane (I cannot remember her Luo name right now.)She struggled to hold her head up for this photo. She is 21 years of age and lives in Ponda Mali, Nakuru. She was a single mother, but her child died of AIDS. Jane is HIV positive and when we visited her this past Thursday very sick. She is bedridden, well actually she has no bed so I suppose you have to say she is floor ridden. In fact I will be given her one of Babu Lonnie's beds, yes I asked permission (though if I am honest I asked permission after I had already made the decision.) We also took her to hospital and she was prescribed some medicine, which we purchased for her. The doctors were optimistic that she could recover, and Jane's spirits were picking up. She is looking forward to walking around by herself and testifying of God's goodness.
