Little did Djonsly’s mother know that he had cancer hiding behind his right eye, pushing the eye outside the socket! Like the widow woman with an issue of blood (Luke 8:43-48), she went from doctor to doctor… only the doctors in Haiti would not “even look at him.” They had no compassion for him at all… but, his praying “mom,” wouldn’t give up. God spoke to her about a mission called, “Love A Child,” and she brought her son to our Jesus Healing Center Clinic.

When our doctors took him in, their hearts melted. This would require a certain surgery not done in Haiti, so we went to work. We had a good connection with a Hospital in the States and someone on the inside, who said, “if you can get him to us, we will take care of him.”

We did and they did! They removed cancer from behind his eye. He lost that eye but was in good condition. After several operations, he left the U.S. to go back to Haiti. But, what we did not realize was that, at the time of the second surgery, his Visa had run out!

It took us a year, of begging, pleading, finding the right attorney, and the right Congressman to renew Djonsly’s Visa. It was very stressful for us because every day, we saw people crossing our borders illegally, and yet, here was one young man, an A student, who needed his Visa renewed in order to get another surgery (who could not travel back to the States). (And, this surgery did not cost the taxpayers anything!!)

Finally, we got him to the D.R. to fly out (because we could not go through the main Port-au-Prince Airport in Haiti, due to gangs!). God worked other miracles when we arrived at the ticket counter, but just to let you know, God is a BIG GOD! Djonsly made it to the hospital, where the doctors found out that he had “only one lung left!” (This was due to treatment he had at a Haitian Hospital, right before he left…)

Now, the doctors are watching Djonsly and checking him constantly to see when and if cancer returns. Djonsly and his mom are right next to the Hospital and he is checked constantly to see when he will need the surgery. In the meantime, he is going to school (not sure if it is on the internet or home school), but he is a straight-A student! Djonsly wants to be a doctor.

We have no words to praise God, but with tears in our eyes, we want to thank you, our wonderful partners, who stood with us in prayer, and those who helped pay for his ticket to the U.S.!

We love you all!!!
