CHARLES KIMANI IS WELL!

For several years Charles Kimani has had a growth in his shoulder and back.  When Dr. John Bailey led a medical team to Malindi, we flew Charles to the coast to be examined. They did a biopsy and exploratory surgery.  When we tested the biopsy, it was negative, but the exploration revealed a very complicated mass attached to his shoulder, his ribs, his back and next to his lungs.  The medical team loved Charles; they said he has a great outlook, loves Christ and people and was a good patient.

Charles has continued to live with constant pain and suffered weakness in the shoulder and arm.  So we have been working on getting an appointment for surgery, and a local doctor has examined him.  As we were working on it, God blessed us richly...again!  A friend wrote saying that he wanted to make a sizable contribution to Made in the Streets!  And we recommended that one of the things he do for us is provide for this surgery. He agreed to this, so we scheduled Charles for surgery.

Now he is back home at MITS and has recovered.  Last week he went back to work in the woodworking shop and told Darlene he had finished some things she wants to take to the USA.  I asked him about pain, and he says "it is gone."  He is smiling; actually he never stopped smiling through the pain, but now his smile is not in spite of the pain.

Rejoice with us!
