CHILDREN

This is "E." She needs your help. She has an abdominal cyst that needs to be removed because it is enlarging and causing problems. She is a Standard 7 pupil at Hope Educational Centre where she has attended since baby class. She ranks #3 in her class. Her parents were able to pay for her initial consultation and xray, but are unable to continue as they provide for a daughter in college, two sons in secondary, plus "E" at Hope. Yesterday we took her to a specialist in Kisumu.

Dear family and friends, The big excitement here in Sakwa is the big yellow machine grading the main road through this village. People come up to the road to watch and the pupils at school line the fence and stand by the gate to watch the machine go back and forth moving dirt and rocks. We are hoping the work gets done and the road is hardened before too much rain comes to spoil the work. This will be a major improvement for this area, not because we have a lot of traffic,
