New office!!!

Last week we didn’t post anything on our blog because I was moving into my new office. We decided to move “reception” (that’s me) into a new office to try and control the traffic through the general office – it’s like a zoo some days!

Our two new storerooms are beautiful and we have enough space to store our medical supplies there too.

We would like to thank Weeshuis Der Hervormden for donating the money for the new office and the store rooms, what a wonderful gift that was.

Hospice:
As we predicted, our “12 bed” Hospice would learn to expand. By the end of last week we were up to 16 patients! Luckily we were able to discharge 3 children this week and a few more are ready to go, we’re just waiting on their Social Workers to ensure that they have somewhere to go to.

We know, however, that we will soon fill up the empty spaces because we have been getting calls for admissions that we have had to turn aside because we were full.
These are our two latest admissions:
This boy is 14 years old and very shy

Our quarterly hospital visits are almost over. The children from 2 of the houses have already been to the HIV clinic and they are all doing well!


Hospice:

Wow!! I was away for a week and when I left we had 11 children in the hospice and when I came back there were 15!

Here are some of the new children in the hospice:



He is 10 years

She is 12 years

She is 7 months

Praise the Lord:

One of the hospice children who's been in hospital for over 2 months is finally back at the hospice and he is doing much better! He is really excited to be back home
