Thank you for the outpouring of kindness and the endless prayers that are being sent.
Tommy was moved into an isolation cubicle within the ICU last night. The Dr's believe it will help keep any likely infections at bay and the room is easier to cool as he has a recurring temperature.
I will be visiting him in a few minutes to see the results of the operation where they inserted the ventilator through the trachea and the feeding tube into his stomach. I will let you know more tomorrow about this.
For now could you let your networks know that we have had to work out a solution to the problem of relocating the children who are now roomless due to the damage to upstairs.
1) Joshua and Reuel will move into a volunteer cottage - this means we have to fix the damp and crumbling wall problem in the cottage known as Somewhere Els. This will cost R119 000 - we have R20 000 toward this already.
2) the boys from upstairs will move into Joshua's vacated room downstairs.
3) For right now Ellen and Theresa will have to stay where they are but when renovations begin we will have to cram them in somewhere - likely in the upstairs lounge with me.
And when Tommy gets back ... well hopefully the repairs will be done before then.
The repairs (and insurance possibilites) for this renovation should be quoted on within the week and then we will know more.
We appreciate all of the love you have sent us from around the world.
For those who asked what you could do for Tommy especially - these are his banking details and since he has lost everything of his own he will be very grateful for any help toward replacing them.
