A Day at Mercy

Ford and I
Napping peaceful children. Moments earlier they were picking at each other and really wound up. If you look closely, you will notice they are all wearing spongebob square pants shorts. So cute.



Ford, one of my students. He is the son of one of the staff members here at Mercy



A little boy named Kent. He is an HIV/AIDS patient here at Mercy 6. He is 14 years, and as you can see the disease has stunted his growth and made his body very small and fragile. He is in the last stages of treatment but is a very content happy boy.

Yesterday Jodie and I joined Si Jie and Pi Tip for an art lesson. I was designated photographer and Jodie got to stretch her skills as an artist. The kids are so special that even their simple paintings say a lot.
