Litah

Today we met Litah. She is 64 years old, 5 children, and 13 grandchildren. Last October her leg began to swell, she spent a month in a bush hospital and was diagnosed with diabetes. She was transferred to Livingstone hospital where they recommended to amputate her leg. She refused for a month until she reluctantly agreed. Her leg has struggled to heal since and she will go in for surgery again this week. Her heavy sadness was broken by a smile as we sat with her and reminded her that God sees her. As we delivered her new mobility cart, laughter broke out amidst her family, who quickly realized the freedom their mom had just been given. Litah was placed on her cart and took off smiling ear to ear!
