| Odelande
had been in our care a while back until her parents decided
to take her home. She continued on our formula program as
she was still young and she did well and eventually
graduated the program. However, things with their situation
have changed and Odelande is now back in our care. She will
be one in October and weighs 13lbs 1.6oz. Please pray for
her mom as they work towards a plan for sweet Odelande. |

Jean
Edson was admitted to our facility the end of last week. His
father and a neighbor brought him to us. He is just over 2
years old and weighs barely over 10lbs. He is an adorable
little boy who we can only imagine has had a rough life so
far. He isn't very interested in food, but we hope that will
quickly change. He was healthy when he was born and around 9
months was admitted to the hospital for a fever. Every since
then he has not been doing well. We hope his father can make
a decision for his future in the next few months. In the
mean time, we love cuddling with little Jean Edson. |

| Irelene
came to us with her grandfather. Although she is doing
pretty well and is fairly healthy, her young mother ran off
and her grandfather doesn't know where to. He is the only
one caring for Irelene and just does not know how. He loves
his daughter and granddaughter very much and was very humble
when asking for help. Please pray for this man, his
daughter, and little Irelene. |

Caleb
was brought to us by his mother and father. They both love
him dearly and are caring for him the best they can but with
his CP its becoming more difficult and they know that his
life in Haiti will not be ideal. Please pray he adjusts well
in our care. |

| Sasia
is two months old and weighs 5lbs. She is a beautiful new
addition to our home. Her great-grandmother brought her to
us as her mother is unable to care for her at the moment.
They have been having a hard time feeding her and need some
extra help while she is so little. They hope to bring her
home in 3 months. |
|
Roselineda's
mom and dad both came to admit her. Roselineda's mom seems
mentally unstable and does not make much sense when she
speaks. At over a year old Roselineda weighs 7 pounds
1 ounce. She is so tiny and sickly. She has been drinking
tiny amounts for us but she does not seem to be able to
handle too much yet. She has 8 other siblings; 5 of
whom stay at home with their parents and the other 3 live
with an aunt, friend and godmother. Her parents will come
back in 2 months to discuss her future. Please be praying
Roselineda starts to do well and gains lots of weight. |

Name: Wilson
Birthday: 08/26/2008 |
| Begenson was
brought to us by his grandmother. He turned a year old on
April 5th and has kwashiorkor. He weighs just over 16lbs.
His mother is very sick and his grandmother is unable to
care for them both (plus his 2 siblings). We have nicknamed
him Ben as its easier to say. We put an ng tube down to feed
him for now, but we pray his appetite increases and he gains
healthy weight. He loves to cuddle which we are happy to
oblige. |

Wilson was admitted to the
hospital with his mother for vomiting and diarrhea. After he
was admitted his mother left and never came back. He was
left there for 1 month before we found out about him. He
weighs just over 10lbs and is about 8 months old. He has
some skin infections and poor muscle tone, but we hope good
nutrition and love will help quickly change all that. He is
already smiling and such a sweet boy. |
