Made it to Kenya!

Sofina, her parents, and the Anesthesiologist in front of the MAF Plane in Sambava

We both want to thank everyone that has been praying for Sofina, her family, and us. We know very well that what is taking place is an amazing act of God, and a result of prayer.

 Everyone has safely made it to Kenya and arrived at the hospital late last night.  There were some difficulties getting the visa in Kenya because there was nowhere to exchange the Malagasy currency.  Thankfully the Bethany Kids had sent a driver to pick them up and he was able to help them and pay for the visas!  Dr. Albright from Bethany Kids was able to see Sofina this morning and has decided it is best for them to wait a few days to do surgery. She is too malnourished, and anemic to have surgery now. She is going to likely need a blood transfusion, and a nutritionist is going to work with her to help "fatten her up." Sofina is 2 years and 4 months old and weighs approx 10-12 pounds, her body is very frail, but her spirit is strong! Please keep praying for this sweet little girl, and for all of the wonderful doctors that are trying to save this little girl's life!
