A visit from Switzerland



rs. Today we had a visit from Switzerland. Felix Moser and his family came to Kenya to celebrate a real Kenyan wedding which is on a much bigger scale than we know it from Switzerland. His wife Eunice' origin is from Nyeri, a typical Kikuiu region, about 180 km north of Nairobi. Eunice brought her sister with her who has a 4 year old girl that cannot walk and also has some eating disorder. I learned that she didn't get enough oxygen at birth time. Our doctor Wanjara check ed the girl and gave some advice. I personally think that with intense physiotherapy the condition might change. I also offered the mother to stay here for a month and our doctor could try to help.
