Distressing News!

I just received this email from James in Freetown:

James Bombolia Mansaray to me

Hello Mama Hicks,

Just after sending the improving word on Mako's health few hours later Kadijah called while i was out of the house on the way to see Alimamy at the 34 Military hospital. I had to return meeting him throwing up at the bathroom. He is currently on Glucose drip. He is complaining weakness, dizzy and torment. Hopefully we do several tests tomorrow in a better hospital. He is in a private small clinic for now around congo cross since there are no doctors now in the big hospitals.
Sorry for this sad news but keep praying. He seems torment under this drip. The medical man used some of the medical supplies that came in today. Few of the hospital IV drip stuffs and bandages. They are among the stuffs you sent for the doc in Kabala.

More tomorrow and thanks for this. I must rush to see how he is feeling.

Son.
