Joseph


I wanted to bring to everyone's attention about Joseph the boy we have been advocating for for 2yrs now. He is 16 and a bright boy. His family has him in school and he dreams of being a geologist one day. I have meet this boy on a few occasion on my trips to Liberia and he is very respectful and kind. It is hard to see him with his whole life ahead of him and have so many aspirations in life and yet he struggles to breath everyday. He works hard to stay in school and gets all A's. Joseph has fluid by his lung and heart. He has seen doctors who have stated he needs surgery they cannot provide in Liberia. He needs a shunt put in his chest that will pull the fluids away so he can breath. Until then we try to help him with the fluids being sucked out twice a year. If anyone knows of someone who would be willing to help with his twice a year continued medical bill, we would so appreciate and so would Joseph. We hope to eventually raise funds to send him to another African country to have the surgery but until then, this is what has to be done.

p.s. the cost pr treatment is 175.00 x twice a year.

Dear Sis. Donna and all sponsoring partners:

It is but proper to bring to your immediate attention of what is becoming a worst condition of Joseph Darwar who suffers from lung malfunction. His breath is worst of odor that is hard to inhale. He is losing weight and cough uncontrollably. Joseph is still seeing Dr. Sherman and the lung fluid that continues to build up will need to be extracted once again. The procedure, medication, and transportation will cost around $175.00

My plead to you all is for us to join hands in raising funds to help with his medicals.

Yours,

Pastor Peter
