Not a good news

Hope you still remember my post about Yah and Wan and still pray for them. To be honest I once feel they are getting better and nothing serious anymore, but last night my hubby brought a horrible news about Wan. I will share it after Yah's update.

Yah will see the doctor again on Oct 10th, 2007. I tried to call her several times before but no one picked up the phone. Just now I call her again and talked to her hubby. He said Yah still coughs often and loose her weight significantly. They have to spend more than 300,000 rupiahs or 33 USD for one time doctor visit and a month medicines. May be it's so cheap for you but for them, 8.3 USD for a doctor is quite a burden. I asked them to bring her every 2 weeks to the doctor but the doctor's fee is expensive. Yah has to have 8 months treatment to get well again, so I think it's ok to meet the doctor once a month as this is a long term treatment. I just make sure that she bought all the medicines and took them regularly.

Wan is still hospitalized and yesterday my hubby was called by the hospital because Wan urged to go home. Wan said he couldn't stand to lie down all the time and the hospital is so hot. He wanted to get a treatment at home (actually at his hometown- a small town). This is a very difficult time for this young man, we have to support him in our prayers. He wanted to walk and get convinient environment but he doesn't realize that his own life actually is at stake! My hubby talked patiently to him that he has to hang in there. He must have a perseverance and willingness to do all he can for his recovery...

He is told to eat 6 eggs a day and eat fish oil to get much protein to build his body again, but he refuses it. He becomes so thin, how can his body get nutrition and protein to recover? Hm... I don't know.... The worst thing is that one of his leg is actually damaged inside. I posted the other leg's picture, the black and burn one... in fact it was burnt by the surface only. Electricity can damage our body from inside and we even don't notice it until it was severely damaged!

The other leg got infectious and has pus inside. It has been operated 4 times to clean the pus and the doctor hope that eventually the pus will decrease and stop then the leg can be covered again. If you want to see his leg, you can click picture 1 and picture 2 warning, it is really horrible! We can see his flesh, pus and bone on those pictures.

After seeing that pictures you will understand why he needs high protein to recover. The worst case, if this treatment is not successful, his leg has to be amputated. Sorry to share this sad news to you all.




Please don't stop praying for them. Though you don't know them, God loves them and your prayers mean a lot to give them strength in this hard situation.
