Look what YOU did...AGAIN!

Because of the generosity of so many of you, we were able to purchase the following items to take to Hannah's Hope (our agency's transition home--where our daughter is).  We focused our shopping on the items that are most needed at this time.

18 Pairs of kids shoes in varying sizes (half boys and half girls)
16 packages of cotton balls (200/pack)
14 sets of scrubs (10 medium, 2 large, and 2 small)
14 pairs of off brand crocs in varying sizes from 6-9 (7 black and 7 white)






Additional Need:  We are also hoping to bring over some IV needles with catheters (sizes 20ga, 22ga, and 24g).  When we were at Hannah's Hope for our first trip, the Director told us that when malnourished children come to Hannah's Hope and need fluids, they have to use 20ga needles that have no catheters.  What this means to us non-medical folks:  they have to use needles that are way too big for these tiny babies, and they have to leave the needle in the vein (or try to) in order to administer the fluids.  This is a problem because babies tend to move a lot and the needles are too big.  If you would like to help with this need, please ask your local hospital or pediatrician.  Many of them donate items like this for mission trips.

Thank you SO much for your generosity!
