A few weeks ago, this baby was left in the mud in front of our gate at Love A Child. Our missionary Kaeli found the baby. He was very lethargic, malnourished, and his arms and legs were just like spaghetti, no muscles. He had some teeth so we felt that he could be about one and a half-years-old, but was no bigger than a six-month-old. Yesterday, we found out that he has a mother, and tracked her down.

The baby’s name is Wendy (boy). His mother loved him, but when she left to go to the market, his father brought him to Love A Child and left him at the gate. He hates this baby and doesn’t want to keep him. Yesterday, Kaeli and our driver took the mother to the Department of Social Services and had him committed to “the arms of Love A Child.” He will have a good home now, and lots of love! We will believe God will bring healing to this small, broken life, just as God has done to so many others. Sherry
