Lucy is Going Home

--
Lucy's hospital bill was paid. Huge thanks to Dan Holcomb for his hectic scrambling to get the wire transfer done, despite the fact he was leaving the next day to go to Uganda.

Now Lucy is feeling much better and her leg wound has been taken care of. She will go home first thing Friday morning. So once she fully recovers from the operation she had this past Monday, she should be OK for the long term.

Her hospital bill was paid by sponsors in Texas, an amount her family could never afford. Children in Kenya die every day because they can't pay for medical care, so we are deeply thankful that loving friends from far away have come to Lucy's rescue.
