Good News!!!

I think that all of your good thoughts and prayers have made their way to Ethiopia! We received news from our adoption agency yesterday that all of the children have been examined, and a medical director of a TB specialized hospital said that none of the children have TB but 4 have a rapid case of pneumonia. Three of those four have been admitted to the hospital and the other one was sent back to the orphanage. After these examinations are completed, a report will be made to the medical doctor at the US Embassy who then determines which children are healthy enough to be adopted. This orphanage was caring for about 70-80 children a year ago and now their numbers are around 160, so they are doing the best that they can trying to meet the basic needs of these children. Keep those good thoughts and prayers coming, we all need them!
