A hard IV, and a boy released!

Warm greetings to all from Haiti!

Things continue to happen at the CTC, as one boy and lady came in yesterday.

The boy was pretty bad and we had a hard time finding a vein and getting the IV started once we did. Thea worked at it for about half an hour, finally finding success. He was able to be released this afternoon though, he improved so much. That was a blessing.

The lady that is in right now continues to improve slowly. We expect her to be released tomorrow sometime.

This little boy's vein's were very difficult to get an IV into.

Thea worked at it on one arm...

To no avail.
So, she tried the other arm... 

Finally, after about half an hour, she was able to get one in.
Praise the Lord!

A few more people...

As you probably speculated, the last two weeks have been very good for the Cholera Treatment Center. We have been attempting to re-direct the non-serious cases to another CTC nearby, while accepting those that are too sick to make it there. It has been working out very well, since there has been basically no one coming.

The other day, however, we had several more serious cases come in, prompting us to admit them and give treatment.

Please continue your prayers for the people around here. They need to see the light of the Gospel and to be healed, not just from their physical sickness, but the soul-sickness which has kept them in bondage for years...

Another empty day!

Another quick update...

Nothing's happening! Again, today, we have no one in the CTC! Not even people in observation!

Thanks for your prayers!!

Empty and cleaned cots leaned up, drying...

One of the guards sits idly, waiting for some action :)

More cots leaning up against the EMPTY observation tent!
Praise the Lord!
