Sick Orphan

Orphan Sopheak Having Fun With A Visitor

The child pictured on the left is named Sopheak. She is eight years old and is one of the orphans who live with us here in Phnom Penh. I have been so busy the past few days that I've been unable to post here on the blog. Sopheak got real sick over the weekend. We have spent the past couple of days with doctors and hospitals. The doctors tested her for malaria, dengue fever, tuberculosis, and a number of other things. We had blood work done for her and a chest xray. There were also some medicines we had to buy as well as IVs. The total bill for the medical care for $300. That's a lot cheaper than the U.S. but when our orphan support for the month is only $500, well, you can see that we could use your help on this. Would you consider helping us with this expense? Those of you who are familiar with how to send support and offerings, just remember when you send a check to mark it for "Haas/Cambodia/Sopheak Medical."

Anything that comes in over the $300 amount, we will put into an emergency fund that we are starting for things like this that come up. If you need instructions on how to send an offering, email me and I'll send you instructions. Thank you so much and God bless!
