Dr. Sonja Miskin tells us a little about some of the patients being served by the Nakekela HIV/AIDS Hospice.



This is Phumzile. She lives alone with a young brother: no other living relatives. Due to her vulnerable status she was violently attacked; her eye stabbed out and she contracted HIV as a result. We found her terribly sick and she has been with us about two months now. She was so traumatized that she was unable to smile or even look up for the first two weeks of her stay with us. See now how the Lord's grace and gentleness has changed her!


This is Queenie who was found abandoned in hospital last September by one of our volunteers that did hospital visits. She has been with us since then. She has a totally paralyzed right side due to a tumor in her brain caused by HIV/AIDS. Her prognosis is not good. Her social conditions are dreadful; she has no living relatives and so we are her family and home. She has mental impairment now due to this tumor and so we are not sure how much she understands. We really would appreciate prayer for her...that our Lord would make himself and His saving mercy known despite her handicaps.




This is Pastor Sifiso Hlatswayo who regularly shares God's Word with the patients.


This is Thabile, a young mom of two small children who has improved dramatically under our Lord's care with us. She and her mother praise the Lord for her return to health! She is going home this week.


Please join us in thanking the Lord for his blessings upon the very difficult lives of these precious people.
