Everybody is physically and emotionally exhausted right now. There is super loud music playing nightly til 3 am about 100 metres away, and there's a screaming goat just outside the gate. Soon it will be Ramadan and the loud dance music will be replaced by some dude singing and chanting through his megaphones... also around 100 metres away. Love it.
Every time I come here there's sickness in the Baby Home (or am I being paranoid?). In 2008 there was measles and chicken pox, in 2009 Elizabeth hung in the balance and now 3 children have malaria and almost everyone has or has had random high fevers that have knocked them out for a few days. We painted some of the play room tonight but couldn't get the staff involved as they had about 10 kids crying and sick! Maybe next time. We did bring them Chipsi Mayai and Samosas though.
Get better quick guys!
