This report just came in from Beth Nolan, Shalken’s host mom: Blood work from Shalken came through fine, though he is anemic. The doctors feel they should not do another skin biopsy because his muscles are not in good shape. They want to do a full body x-ray/bone scan to check if there are any internal issues. They will also consult with a nutritionist. He is in good hands. Sherry

PS: He is wearing clear lens glasses. The Haitian kids love wearing them because they are so “cool!”
