Tasha has taken in FIVE new babies since I left Haiti in early August and she's considering a 4 year old girl (older sister of one of the new babies) with protein deficiency syndrome (kwashiorker malnutrition). The 4 yr old really should be treated in a hospital so Tasha is helping her mom look for one. Pictures of the 5 new babies are attached. I downloaded them from Tasha's blog.
Natasha is overwhelmed with 5 new sick babies plus Poutchino's ongoing serious health issues plus all the things that happen from time to time with 22 young children in the house plus being the director with a staff of 13 workers! (9 yr old Kervens is our oldest. Next in age is Poutchino who is 5 years old but mentally only 1 or 2 yrs.)
We were already short on cribs and mattresses and highchairs before getting the new kids. Our washing machine broke. Imagine doing laundry for 21 infants, most still in diapers, by hand every day. Please pray for God to provide for all of our needs.
Some very generous friends have already covered our rent. What a blessing!
A glitch in a funds transfer has kept me in Jacksonville longer than expected and I'm still not sure exactly when I'll return to Haiti. This week, I hope! Natasha needs a break. I'm anxious to get back and help.
Tasha extended her stay until October 28th to try to be there when I get back. I am SO grateful to her. I am also grateful for the knee surgery. I'm getting stronger and having less pain every day so maybe that's why God is allowing this delay.
Please pray for us, especially Natasha. God bless you all.
