When I made the request for financial help for the Waterloo Hospital to be able to purchase medication for the cholera epidemic I never expected such a fantastic response! Thank you so much to everyone who has been able to send a donation for the medication. They have made the first purchase of medical supplies shown in the picture below and more are being purchased next week and more donations have been pledged!!
Many lives have been saved and I am very grateful for the donations and prayers, as is Dr Koroma and his staff and patients.
Here's a message of thanks from Dr Koroma:
"I would like to express my sincere thanks and appreciation to you and the people
that donated this money to us for the purchase of drugs to help in the
treatment of cholera, indeed we have tried by our own means to handle these
cases since the starting of the epidemic, and so far we have treated 112 cases,
and only 3 deaths, and I think this is a good effort through God's help even
though we have been struggling to buy the drugs and the fluids, but we have done
far better. The epidemic is still not finished even though it has reduced, and
people are now coming at an earlier stage than before, but we still need more
drugs and fluids to be able to handle them proper"
