A gratitude letter for Ruth

Today I got a nice letter:

Hi, my name is Regina. As the year ends, I have a message for you; you touched my heart. To me you are more precious than gold and more expensive than anything that money can buy. I am an IDP at Mbaruk. I visited the hospital that you sacrificed and started for the less fortunate. When our country was rocked with post-election violence, I became a victim and found myself and family at Mbaruk and that?s how I came to know about Rhein-Valley at Kasambara. Currently, my son is being treated there with rheumatic fever. Thanks to Dr. Wanjara who is so kind and good to all. Also sister Ruth.

To me you are the woman of the year 2008. Thanks for your Big Heart and may God bless you so much and may you live long enough to enjoy.
