Pinky is the girl between Emma and me on the picture,she was a patient end of last year for about 2 months. She came in with severe weakness of both her legs due to HIV nerve damage, unable to walk or even stand alone. She was unable to control her bladder. She was always very depressed and feared she wouldn't walk again. We helped her get onto ARV's which is the medication for HIV. On Friday we had a follow up clinic for old patients...the plan is to see how they are doing spiritually,socially and medically..(quite a logistical nightmare to pick them all up and get them to Nakekela)It is a time for felllowship and reunion, tea and cake and good lunch together. Well...Pinky was just one big smile this time so I asked her why she is so smiley....and she says: "Because I have become a Christian now...when I was a patient you all prayed for me so much and specially Sr Emma, that when I went home I joined the Church and found that the Lord has freed me on the inside as well as healing me on the outside" She is walking without any aid and has recently been married!Oh how we rejoiced together! The Lord Who heals will receive much glory and thanksgiving. Sonja Miskin |
