Grandpa and Grandma!

Are here! Pretty excited about having my parents here and, not to mention, the really fun stuff they packed their bags with. One of those items I have been waiting for since the middle of June, a battery charger for my digital camera! So, hopefully, I can start posting more pictures on here again.
On a side note, the hospital which has been empty of babies for months now, has 2 - expecting another one today. The 2 in there now are 'just sick' but it's still sad that the parents won't stay with them during treatment. The little one is 2 1/2 weeks old, just 3 pounds and wasn't gaining weight at home. So, they sent her back to make sure everything was okay. Still though, why doesn't the Mom stay with her? There are rooms and beds designed for them to stay...
There is a severely handicapped 2-3 year old girl as well who has just arrived. Apparently she had TB and Meningitis and now the entire left side of her body doesn't work properly. The story is that the Mom doesn't want her but the Dad and Grandma do. The Dad and Grandma were up visiting her actually the other day. Not sure right now what the outcome will be for this little one! And, there is a newborn that has been abandoned and was supposed to arrive in our abandoned ward 2 days ago so we are thinking he/she will come today.
Please pray for these little ones, especially that their time in the hospital will be SHORT!
