Erline

Erline is one of the 5 very critical kids who are staying up at the house with me and the other 4 volunteers here. She is in the fight for her life and I'm asking you to pray with us. She's had kwashiorkor for several weeks now, and seemed to be doing better, but took at turn for the worse yesterday when she stopped eating and drinking. We put a tube in. but she is not able to keep much down. Although she looks "healthy" because she is not small, none of the fluid in her body is in the right place. You can see the severity of her dehydration in her sunken eyes and deflated umbilical hernia.
