…BUT poor little Roo lies on the floor with his “well-loved friend”. He has malaria.
Moment by moment the streets become more and more active.
Taxi cabs and pedestrians dart from alley to street. Papers fly in the wind and tin cans roll to the gutters.
Rush, Rush…Everyone is “taking care” of business.
…all the while, ill children are lying on the floor like Roo throughout the city, the country – unnoticed by the day’s activities.
Roo is fortunate, because of you, through NHA, he has some medications available. He has a roof over his head. Even so, malaria (any illness) is dangerous in Sierra Leone. No one is exempt from its effects. The minimum healthcare efforts we depend on in America are a far cry above what a Sierra Leonean can hope for.
NHA can’t cure it all or feed everyone, but working together, we can make a huge difference in many, many lives —one life at a time .
Don’t look away, don’t give up – don’t undo in doubt what you began in faith.
