A Broken Foot

Before we left for the US, Kimberly and Kamau were gone to Kenya for 7 weeks.  As the time for their return drew close, I thought, "How wonderful that there have been no broken bones while they are gone."  Kamau has been the one to take the children into Lusaka to the hospital when there have been broken bones. 

On the Tuesday before they were returning on Thursday, we were having our teacher meeting with the mothers and aunties.  We heard a child screaming and 2 of the teachers went to attend to the child.  It turned out to be Mary B.  There was no blood, no scrapes, no swelling.  But you couldn't touch her leg without her crying out.  So Benedict had the honor of taking Mary and Auntie Doreen into Lusaka.  It turned out she had broken her foot or heel.  I'm told that she is doing fine, but please be praying for her.

Hello Kathleen I was sorry to hear about my little Mary. She has a special place in my heart as we use to share special times remembering my brother and her daddy who have passed on. Her wonderful smile and beautiful spirit will always be with me. Please give her an extra big hug from her Auntie Debra
