Episode 1: Introducing you to some great kids that I have been spending some time with
Meet Jacquline Adoti!
Affectionately known as "Adoti" or "Dot" this little girl lives at Sister Freda's Cottage Hospital. She has the sweetest smile that lights up her face and she is the most gorgeous little girl. She doesn't speak much, but as she feels accepted and comfortable she opens up.
The exact details of her life story before living at the hospital aren't known but we do know that she lived in Kipsongo with her mother. Her mother is an alcoholic and severely neglected Adoti. She is smaller than a 2-year old child but in reality she is around the age of 4. Sister Freda first saw Adoti when she was doing a medical clinic at Kipsongo. Many times Sister Freda had to take Adoti to the hospital to treat her for numerous illnesses. About a year ago Sister Freda found Adoti laying in the mud, abandoned by her mother. Freda did not think that Adoti would survive the 15 minute drive to the hospital. By the grace of God, Adoti has been recovering for the past year and getting healthier. She is very far behind developmentally but she is making so much progress.
I alsolutely love this little girl and you will be seeing many pictures of her and I in future posts!
