Some Updates

We’ve posted about three specific baby boys who have faced some health challenges in their short little lives. Thank you for praying for them.

Baby Blessing is off and running, taking at least 100 mls of formula the last few times Mama Sherry (aka Cheryl) has fed him. He was transferred out of the isolation room to the infant room, where he joined four roommates, on  Friday.  He’s very curious and is  loving being where there’s a little more activity  to be a part of.

Baby Edwin came home from hospital on Thursday. He is doing much better but still needs to be watched closely and still requires aerosol treatments.  We don’t have an updated picture of him but here’s a cute one of him taken the day before he came home.

Baby Darius is improving slowly. He is still somewhat weak, still requires IV antibiotics and has difficulty feeding. However, his infection seems to be clearing and he is much brighter. After I fed him today he almost smiled, but not quite.

You may remember that on our arrival we learned that one of the security guards had just lost his wife and newborn baby. Bosco returned to work today. He was to have returned sooner but he and his children have all been suffering with malaria. Please pray for him as he continues to grieve and adjusts to the challenges of being a single father to three school-aged children.

  1. Thanks for all the updates. Wonderful to see how God is working in these little lives. Praying that each little boy will continue to improve. Thankful that Bosco was able to return to work, though it must be hard for him with 3 children at home. Praying for them as they recover from their illness and their loss of wife and mother. Praying also for each of you as you continue the work you have been called to do. BLDC
