There are few things worse than having your baby girl hurt, but when she is halfway around the world, it’s worse!  Bekah broke her ankle in Arusha,Tanzania a couple of weeks ago and is needing surgery to set it and put in a pin.  But there is an infection now, so they have to wait on the surgery.  It was a compound fracture and there is about a 5 inch cut on the inside of her ankle which has gotten infected.  Dads are not good “waiters” so Michael is heading back to Africa tomorrow  to be with her.  If you are new to the blog you know we have just gotten back from Africa.  We could use lots of prayers right now for Bekah and Michael.

Bekah was born in Africa at the Chimala mission hospital back when the lions still roamed the courtyard of the hospital and monkeys swung from the trees outside the door.  Actually the monkeys are still there.

She has always had a heart for Africa and babies, so with her EMT skills, our home for abandoned, orphaned and at risk babies in Arusha, Tanzania was the perfect combination for her.

She could use your prayers right now and financial help, she doesn’t have insurance, not that it would be good in Africa anyway.  Thanks for helping.  You can give on the website donate button www.neemahousearusha.org and just mark it “medical bills”. 

Blessings, Michael and Dorris
