&lt;br&gt;
So glad I am ble to read your blogs.  You are a very special, blessed, and gifted writer.  You have away of expressing yourself that people can vividly see through your emotions what you see and how you feel.  Mom is there now with you.  Take good care of her, she is so blessed to want to help the beautiful people of Shada, which has absolutely nothing, including doctors or nurses.  Mom and you will I'm sure bring them much needed and deserved medical help.  Do more blogs with photos of you and Mom so I can see what you are doing. All my love, Dad&lt;br&gt;
