I just wanted to give you a short update on the 10-month-old girl I did a tracheostomy on before leaving for the conference in the US. When we left we took her to another mission hospital in Maroua. They took care of her for the days that we were gone and when we came back we picked her up and brought her back to Koza with us. I did a bronchoscopy on her yesterday and her airway is slowly opening up. she still cannot breathe through it well enough to be without the tracheostomy. Please continue to hold her up in prayer that her airway will heal in a way that the tracheostomy can be removed and she can grow normally. 

In HIS Service, Greg
