Johari was a really treat. I remember her from last year. She suffered from rickets or bow legs. She had surgery last year and it was a success. When I visited her she was excited and jumping up and down. What a blessing.
Agonza story is sad. She is a nine yer old girl who has osteomyelitis which is infection in the bone. Single father and he is poor. KCBRP paid for her to go to kagondo hospital and have surgery. However I see her a year later and there is still discharge from the leg. She still has a bone infection. The father has been gone for a week and the step mother seems to be negligent. I tried to really emphasize to the mother that the child needs to go to the hospital for surgery. But I don’t think the mother will do anything.
My time in Kayanga was nice as always. I saw wonderful people with great stories and some tragedies. But mostly good things. My last day I scored two goals playing soccer and my last goal was a rocket of a shot. The goal keeper just stood there in disbelief. It is time to go back to Dar es Salaam and try and retrieve this container.
Thi is Johari a year later
