A family came to us yesterday asking for help
in finding an orphanage for a premature baby. The mother developed eclampsia and
an emergency c-section was done on November 30, 2013 at Hopital Nos Petits
Freres et Soeurs. The baby survived but the mother died the next day. The mother
was 40 years old and Ruth was her 6th child. The father turned to his family for
help and his sister has been keeping the baby alive so far. The family lives in
the Soleil 17 section of Cite Soleil. The baby is small. We tried to get an
estimate weight by having the aunt stand on a scale with the baby and then
another weight with just the aunt by herself. The difference in weight was not
much. Her weight is about 2 pounds. We started making contacts with orphanages.
Amos went up the mountain to speak with Dixie of God's Littlest Angels and she
is willing to take in Ruth to her care. We give the Lord thanks for this opening
We spoke with the family today and
they will be bringing Ruth to God's Littlest Angels on Monday morning. Pray for
health and strength for Ruth. The photos show how tiny she is.
