Cruising gently

There's a patient request from Kandal Province that Susie was not quite sure about so she headed out today to do an assessment. Sopheap said that she was keen as to be part of the posse so she mounted the mighty Spider steed with Sue as pillion and they headed out on the 90 minute trip.

Ready to ride - Sue and Sopheap about to leave.

My girl ice-packed tonight - the notoriously bad road into the village was having some road-works. Patches of water made things even more interesting and the girls took a couple of low-speed dives. Sue has a beaut bruise but she is pretty tough. I am encouraging her to milk this for all it is worth!

Sue says the lady appears to have suffered a stroke after child-birth 12 months ago. She will be coming to the home next week. This turned out to be the village where we've had three patients from previously so there was a bit of a reception committee waiting!

Interestingly, Van who came in as a carer for his wife over a year ago and who was a young Christian is now really on fire for the Lord. We had another carer story this week - a guy who recently came to the home to look after his wife. She had all the care and an organisation paid a lot of $ for her to get an operation - and physically she's doing good. He, meanwhile, has come to the Lord and is eating the Bible in major chunks. You just never know what is going down in people's lives!
