This photo was taken a few weeks ago at the Hope center. This little kid kept trying to wear my sunglasses... but where the exceptional cuteness (and heartache) is found is that he doesn't have a nose or ears, they were basically eaten away by an awful infection and he was with us to get the infection removed and hopefully have a new nose reconstructed. So anyway, he kept trying to get my glasses to stay on but without ears or a nose they didn't stay well. So cute.

12 days left. I feel very schitzophrenic (sp?) right now. I so very much want to be home with my family and friends but am devastated about leaving here. It's to be expected, but doesn't make it any easier.

Peace. K
