Things are happening here - we have a little hope now.

Yesterday I took Jen & Kuji over to the small Clinic here, on Dr. Batayola's recommendation, and it was closed - we try again today.

The Dr. has contacted the Clinic and will be quietly insisting that Kuji be given his medicines for his asthma & TB free of charge, in accordance with the program that supplies meds & treatment to indigent patients here - but he's told me that's easier said than done, and that we need to be persistent about it.

So I look at it as the Mission we are on now; to be quietly persistent about trying to save this beautiful child's life.

Mission number 2 is to slowly bring him out of a malnourished state to stave off Hospitalization over the course of the year, and this is where I positively need the help of my friends who are reading these posts...any help at all would contribute significantly to Kuji's health and well being.

God Bless, and Thank You for reading today,
PJAMES
