Kadijah Mansaray: Last Night & This Morning


Kadijah received visitors last night before going to bed on Monday night.
Lucy cautiously watches the IV drip in Kadijah and
Paul (James elder brother, a pastor), prays with Kadijah. Weakened but trying to cope well, Kadijah is fighting this illness.

Received the following email with photos attached this morning:

Hello Mama,

Its morning here and Kadijah still on the second IV. What a long night!
I had to talk and talk before I could convince the nurses to allow me to sleep here. I dare not leave her alone.
We were up all night, sleeping on a chair five minutes and then off just like that. Crazy, but ok. I hope this ends quick and she gets back home.
I just washed her up and dressed her well.
I gave her a plate of Quaker oats
and she ate well.
She refused to drink fearing throw ups.
Now she is back in bed with the IV on
which I guess will be finished in three hours time.
Seeing the doc this morning again, so please pray.
Thanks for all.

Son.
