Back From The Scrap Heap
Sometimes, it just seems as though the deck is stacked against you. A new life is the only thing that can change your life. Fortunately, we specialize in that.Dhany was kicked down the stairs by her stepfather at age six and was never cared for, her hip was shattered. She dragged herself around on a stick for seven years. The mother divorced the stepfather, but had no money. In the rural town of Steung Treng, there was no help. Tuberculosis of the bones had set in. Dhany was dying.Fortunately Dr. Lina, FCOP Staff Physician, was inspecting our church home in that town, when an egg seller had mercy upon Dhany and brought her to see Dr. Lina. After a lot of prayer, and several surgeries in Phnom Penh, more than 13 pounds of infected tissue was removed; the TB is being treated, and eventually, we anticipate a hip replacement. But, most importantly, she knows the Lord, and is loved and cared for.[nggallery id=1067]
