Here’s an update on Pastor Julius Ng’ayami. I took him to visit his doctor at St Mary’s hospital on Thursday, June 2. They checked his blood and his white blood count was in normal levels. The doctor was amazed and said he would not give him a second dose of IV chemo. Instead, they gave him a four units of blood (the previous chemo had made him anemic, I guess) and send him home to rest and eat well. Julius was so excited. He stayed in hospital two nights while they gave him four units of whole blood. I met him Saturday on his way home and he said he felt so much stronger. He really wants to travel to Loita with a mission team from June 25 to July 4. He said he wants to keep serving the Lord until his last breath, and this change in health was really encouraging to him. Unless he experiences complications, he’ll probably come with us, though he is still much weaker than last year. He’ll visit the hospital again on the June 23r, right before we head out to Loita, and if he’s feeling strong enough, he’ll travel with us.
