Haiti (Nov/Dec)
There is a precious girl I’d like to tell you about. Her name is Ensa, she is 4 yrs old, and as you can see from the picture above, she has the sweetest smile ever and a personality to match it. Brooke, our nurse friend here, took us to meet her today at a hospital nearby. Yep… a hospital :( She has spent the last 2 wks staying there and more than 7 wks battling fevers. She also continues to have bone pain and inflamed joints. During her stay at the hospital, she has had many tests done and received various medications. Still, answers are unclear and the symptoms continue. She is receiving quality medical care where she is and it is necessary for her to remain inpatient while they work to find out what is wrong.
Little Ensa has the amazing parents, who I also had the privilege of meeting today. Despite the challenge of having a small baby at home, one of them is with Ensa constantly. It is obvious that they love each other and their children, and honestly that is not overly common around here. Both parents are unemployed, which unfortunately is pretty common around here.
Here’s where I ask for your help. Child Hope has been doing there best to help this family out, but the medical fund is running low and our sweet friend needs more medical treatment and testing. Each night Ensa stays at the hospital costs $60 US, which is adding up quickly. So, my first request is for money. If you would like to donate to her care, please follow the link posted at the end of this blog. My second request is for prayer. We want so much for Ensa to be healthy and be home with her family, so please be praying for answers and healing. Thank you so much for reading!
