Costel has been feeling ill again. Tests were run again on his liver & diabetes. I am happy to report that Costel went to the Dr. yesterday, his test results are OK w/ in the context, so his illness is stationary, thank God. He will need to take his medications, which he has trouble finding the funds to purchase. He also needs to eat a strict diet, which he will not do because he wants the children to have the food. And also to get a lot of rest, right with 17 kids and teens around 24/7.
Nicoleta’s knee surgery could not take place yesterday, because, guess what? the washing machine (the ONLY one??? in that HUGE hosp?) broke down, so they could not wash the sheets for the OR!!!!!!!!! Only in Romania! Also, she was kept w/o any food for 24hrs, because on the 1st day patients are not on the food census! There is a new volunteer helping in Bucharest that is taking her food and things to keep her busy. She is quite bored. Hopefully Thursday or Friday the surgery will take place, if the washing machine gets fixed!
