i was struck today with the difference in my life and the lives of so many people here. this little girl is dipping rain water out of a puddle into a bucket to use. i realized that my life is very different from that. although life here is hard, simplicity is beautiful.
please be in prayer for loucinda. she is 6 months old and is a very special little one here who is sick with an extremely high fever 104-105 and diarrhea. her parents are t-man and clenide, i have known them since before they were dating. i was there when clenide lost her first baby, and then she has lost another one and carried loucinda only because she was very careful and rested all the time. loucinda had seizures after she was born and was able to go to the states for evaluation and has already been through alot in her short life. i know t-man and clenide are very worried for her. tonight when i went to check on her after we gave her tylenol and ibuprofen her temperature had come down to 100.4. they live just down the street from the mission and clenide is a nurse, so they may bring her tonight if she gets worse, but i pray she doesn't.
