This is Rose-Guerline. She shouldn't have died. Her legs weren't bandaged because of an injury from the earthquake. They were bandaged because they were splitting open because of how swollen they were from a lack of protein in her diet. Kwash kills. Her skin was peeling and her raw flesh made her wince in pain when she moved. She could tell us her story, she could ask us for food and water. And yet her body couldn't recover...
In this life we cannot do great things. We can only do small things with great love. ~Mother Teresa

Another sweet baby being held in the arms of Jesus now. She has a new body and will never want for ANYTHING ever again... Thank God she saw the love of Jesus before she entered into His arms. Thank you for being the hands and feet of Jesus and loving these kids like only He would!!!!!
ReplyDeleteSo sad, I hope some good comes out of this earthquake and people don't forget about how poor Haiti is when the news goes away. Maybe enough programs can be put in place so that this doesn't happen as often as it does. She was so beautiful -Sherry
