Each person on the mission team has patients, children, or just plain Kenyan friends who will always stand out in their minds. However, there were certain patients that will bring a smile to most, if not all, of us. We'd like to share the impact that these precious souls had on us.

One such young man was Tyson, a ten year old sweetie who had simply fallen and scraped his knee about one year ago. Unfortunately, that small cut had not been treated and first it injury became a cellulitis and then it developed into an infection that infiltrated his bone. This type of infection is sadly repeated much too often in remote regions all over the world. Tyson courageously walked on this very sick leg to our clinic on the day we saw the children. Dr. Scott had seen infections like this before and knew that Tyson required attention far beyond what we were able to give. So, we transported him to the closest hospital, almost two hours away. As of the writing of this entry Tyson is recovering nicely from the limb-saving surgery he was able to get. Please join us in praying for a complete recovery for this little guy. Tyson definitely brings a smile to our faces!
