Bernards: Fast Friends
We had two little girls at CURE, ages 9 and 10, who bonded immediately upon coming to CURE. They were from different parts of Ethiopia, spoke different languages, and came from different religions. But both walked with some sort of assistance – one with crutches and the other with braces. These two little girls, who were so used to feeling alone and different, suddenly found kindred spirits in each other. During the week they were at CURE, they were inseparable. They bubbled with joy and laughter together; it was so much fun to watch. I hope that they both take some of that joy away with them as they travel back to their homes.
