A Sick Baby!

March 27,2012 1:40pm
UPDATE! Baby Deborah will need Surgery soon and they still need about $600
for the surgery and care she will receive in ICU. She has Aortic Aneurysm's and will only get worse if she does not have surgery. She needs the surgery within a week or
she may continue to get worse and it will be harder to treat her condition then.
Thanks. Donate if you can!






An Update on Deborah. She was taken to Mulago hospital in Kampala today to see the cardiologist. I'll update more about her progress soon.

11:10 am March 23.













This is baby Deborah. She was unwanted by her family and not fed often. Her twin sister died from starvation. Little Deborah was rescued by an orphanage and she has a heart condition and really needs to see a cardiologist in Kampala. The capital city of Uganda. There is only 1 cardiologist in Uganda. She will not live much longer without getting her heart checked out and getting treatment. The cost of all this $200. Her Condition gets worse everyday so time of the essence. If you can donate any amount click here
to go to pay pal . Deborah is at a orphanage in Iganga, Uganda. It's not affiliated with New Victory School in Uganda which is the charity I Support. But she is in great need of help and amount you give is tax deductible and 100% will go to Deborah's care.


BELOW is the story of how Deborah was found by the director of the orphanage who took her in.
"I was contacted by the District Child Welfare Officer concerning two children who were in critical health conditions.
Because I could not easily get the means of transport to the village, getting there after 5 hours, I found this poor girl had died (Deborah's twin). Many children like this one die and no one takes the initiative to help.
By supporting our efforts to rescue children at risk, we are able to reach many of this kind.

After wards, i went to the next home where I found this beautiful girl sitting in the dust.
I was hesitant to take her on, because she needs so much care that I don't have. She needs to be taken to a nutrition clinic 3 times a week, and she needs much attention. But the sacrifice
is worth it. I have taken her on and she is now with the rest of her adopted brothers and sisters. Though she needs a lot of support, by standing alongside her through prayer, you have done a wonderful thing. She is now delivered and I am have faith, she will be a beautiful young lady in the times to come. May the Lord grant her favor!" That message was written on Jan 11th. The day after Deborah was rescued. Her condition is much worse now.

How family life is in Uganda and Join our FB!

April 3, 2019  2:27 pm To sponsor a child visit us at www.auntiesangels.com or https://www.facebook.com/groups/229498890486607 I wanted to share a bit about family dynamics in Uganda as well as some other things not known about their lifestyles. The only way to see or know these things is to visit and spend a good amount of time there. I'm still learning even after all these years. Many of our kids live without fathers but may have more than 1 person that they call "mom or dad" . In cultural traditions A child has a mom and any of her sisters are called "mom". The mom's brothers are usually called "Dad" as well. For their "Dad" any of his sisters are called Ssenga = Aunt. and any of his brothers are called "Jomba =Uncle. Now this mainly applies to deep villages since in Kampala and Jinja the 2 largest cities are filled with people who are educated and they know the difference between Aunt, Uncle , Cousin etc. Some people

Uganda Healthcare and Ever increasing needs.

8-12-18 9:24 am After spending several months in UG its time to post about things I saw while there. Regarding healthcare and extreme needs in rural Kamuli. One of the most poor and illiterate places in UG. There is an increase in the Hep B disease but not enough vaccines to go around. Someone on the news said a health care worker told them if your already going to die, just die. I have no idea why compassion , care & sympathy is so sorely lacking in Uganda especially among the health care workers. It's very tragic when families can't even afford as little as $5 to treat malaria , typhoid or anything else. Missionaries say they've witnessed nurses and docs laughing at and ridiculing patients who can't pay . Some even have little babies who die because no nurse will touch them until money is paid. We recently had a young girl wait 11 days for a simple hernia surgery. No explanation as to why other than they were "busy" and no one ever has the chance t
