August 24
We had a good meeting with Oliver, the director, of the Disability Community Center. We talked about the challenges brought on by the pandemic. In an effort to cut down on the number of people coming to the center they increased their outreach clinics from 4 to 12. They are teaching the parents basic physical therapy. This has the potential upside in getting the parents more involved in the care of the children. It is especially important for children with Cerebral Palsy.
The needs are are very great. There are 100 children in need of prosthetic limbs. There are 441 children who need, walkers, wheelchairs and other assistive devices. We would like to develop solutions to this problem including starting a prosthetics department.
We are supporting the health insurance needs of 15 children and 10 more have had their surgery paid for by your contributions. Needless to say they are very grateful.
More from Chogoria tomorrow.
Blessings,
Doug
Doug, Thank you for being there on behalf of Jesus Christ and all of us. We continue to lift you up in prayer and your family back home.
Your thoughts on the Infrastructure development with China and their investment/hegemony gives an interesting global political picture of the world’s stage. We praise God for the continued hospital outreach to the people of Kenya. May the prayers of faith for the sick save and heal them. James 5:15 God’s Peace Tim and Jan
