My strength is sufficient

Our school and the greater Bong Ti area has been hit with an outbreak of dengue fever, of the worst kind. Two deaths so far, and many in hospital. At Bamboo Clinic we are seeing more than 20 patients a day and making about 4 trips a day/night to Sai Yok hospital. Normal people have platelet counts of 150-400,000. Some of our patients are less than 30,000. We have three of our older kids in beds at Sai Yok, one transferring to Kanchanaburi today.

We are tired!! The average of 4 hours sleep per day, some of that snatched during the day, is taking a toll. today I am in Bangkok with a patient for a CAT scan, so Leslie is hold the fort. She is also tired, with her pregnancy and lack of full rest. However Amber is due to arrive next week and Somsee came home for a week to help. God keeps us going. Pray we stay close to Him..

Bekah is now on the move… She can crawl faster than I can… we had a race across the hospital floor yesterday… the first prize was a dead fly!!!
