\"100_0780\"<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

When we came out to Manila in October I was feeling rather discouraged with our attempts to help Josilyn gain so weight.\u00a0 We left food for her with another neighbour hoping that maybe she would be able to get more food into her.\u00a0 We had been only able to get very small amounts of food in her.<\/p>\n

When we returned we learned that our neighbour did not spend time feeding Josilyn.\u00a0 This made us sad but we figured we would try to see if anything had changed for her anyway.\u00a0 Her mother commented that her appetite had increased in the weeks we were away.<\/p>\n

We weighed her also and she was amazingly up about 100 grams.<\/p>\n

So I mixed some formula in cup with baby cereal and tried her on it again.\u00a0 She gobbled it up.\u00a0 Each day I would bring this cup out and either go to her house or her mom would come to our porch.\u00a0 Sometimes I would feed it to her while her mother pounded rice or her mom would visit with me while feeding her.<\/p>\n

To our amazement she was eating more then double what she was in October!!!\u00a0 And in just 4 weeks she gained 700 grams!!!\u00a0 She is now 7.1 kg!!!\u00a0 They are small steps but there is improvement.<\/p>\n

The best part of it all was that each day I brought out the cup, she would look at me and then start reaching her hands out to try to get the cup!\u00a0 What a joy it was to see.<\/p>\n

This time we left food with another young lady in the village for her to try to feed her.\u00a0 She seemed very eager to try to help them out.\u00a0 We shall see if she was able to feed her in just a couple weeks when we go home.<\/p>\n

Thanks for praying for Josilyn.\u00a0 Please continue to pray for her and her family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
