Hard work to bring home the fire wood

rs. On the way to the hospital I saw many women and children and also a donkey carrying fire wood. On the hospital I made my usual controls and everything seemed to be ok. Some women stayed in the tents together with their children, some read the bible. Also no complains about the children, they all went to school today. Kongo, our gardener asked how to clean the corn mill and our elderly couple enjoyed their lunch. It was an easy day and I even had time to do some shopping on the way home. I found some Italian Ravioli which will make my meal tonight. Later I also got a call from a refugee who plans to go to Eldoret to check out the situation there and he needed a little money for the bus ticket. I will give it to him tomorrow.
