Update on Asher.

We just got Asher's monthly medical update and he has malaria. He is being treated for that and a skin infection. Our case manager said that malaria is quite common in Awassa because there are a lot of mosquitos/lakes. I have a call in to our international assistance doctor. I don't think this is anything that is immediately threatening him. He looks pretty healthy in his pics, but I am still worried. Could you all pray for our little guy?

Everything else looked good on the medical. He is starting to get some "real" food and the report states he likes potatoes. He has gained some weight and he is almost smiling in one of the pics. I have yet to see a real smile though. Maybe we will have to wait for that in person..... Anyways, that's all.

Psalms 10:14, 17-18

"You are the helper of the fatherless.  LORD, You have heard the desire of the humble; You will prepare their heart; You will cause Your ear to hear, To do justice to the fatherless and the oppressed, That the man of the earth may oppress no more."
