Hauwa*, a woman from the Dakoro region, displayed the 4 inch
wide dressing from her left hip
across her entire back. She had suffered from
malaria and gone to a local dispensary to receive medication. They gave her a
series of three injections which is common practice for malaria treatment. She
did not know what type of medication she was given but she developed a horrible
infection from the injections which is requiring extensive wound care to bring
healing. She told how every clinic she went to, instead of receiving care, she
just got shocked responses from nurses and doctors. Susan*, a nurse on the
women’s ward here at Danja, was there for her initial exam, and told her, “You
come with me, and I can start treating it.” Hauwa shares that the care,
compassion and prayer she has received at CSL have spoken to her heart and she
is keen to know more about Jesus.
