After many prayers and much advice Violet Achieng has started the process of corrective foot surgery. Her feet have steadily gotten worse the last few years and were now causing her much pain when walking. Her mother had the same problem when she was young and has lived most of her life in a wheelchair because she is not able to walk
Lillian Ombori, the CGA Student Care Overseeer, took Violet a few months ago to a Cure International outreach clinic. The doctors that assessed Violet gave her hope that her feet could be corrected with surgery.
I was able to drive her to the Cure International Children's Hospital in Kijabe, Kenya along with her grandmother last Saturday.
Violet's right foot was operated on Tuesday, October 11th and all went very well. She is resting and will be in the hospital for the remainder of the week. Violet selected her right foot due to the pain that it was causing her. After 6 to 8 months she will be free to have the left foot corrected.
Continue to pray that recovery will go well and that no infection will enter her body. Also pray that her family will take good care of Violet
