rs. Today we had a big discussion about the food. Although the Government promised us support, we still don't know if we get enough food for the refugees in the camp. Therefore we called everybody and tried to explain the situation. If we don't get food supplies from the Government side, the refugees have to look for themselves and we can give them only fresh drinking water and shelter. Our provisions are nearly finished and we need more supplies. We agreed that a delegation of the refugees will go to the DO (District Officer) on Monday to make their case. We will give them the money for the trip to Nakuru town. Let's hope for a good response; otherways I will have to intervene myself. As PS Dr. Nyikal spoke of collaboration on Thursday, we hope for a positive outcome of the problem.

Our big cleaning day
rs. Today we had a major cleaning day. All the mattresses were take out of the hospital and the blankets and pillows were disinfected. The toilets and washrooms were especially cleaned. Six refugee men helped us the hole day, all together we were a crew of 14 workers. After a short lunch break we continued in the afternoon and I took out my hot steam cleaner for the mattresses. At 5 pm everybody was happy that the duties were done. And when I drove home, a big rainfall started. The weather changes as quickly as some of our people change their mind...

The first tooth

rs. This young camp habitant got his first tooth. This Sunday is quiet as usual. The refugees take their time to clean everything and to go to church. By the way there are five different churches here. Most of the refugees are happy with the life in the camp and adopted well all the rules and regulations although for many of them it is quite a challenge considering their past life in the bushes.
