Oumar from Niger on Today
This young man is feeling much better today! In part thanks to the time that has passed since his surgery and also thanks to his mom who bought him a Nigerien breakfast fried dough that he loves called "farine masa!" On top of this, the doctors have given the all clear for Oumar to go home! He'll be back regularly for wound cleanings and bandage changes so it won't be long until we see his smile again!
Balki from Niger on Today
Balki has her new lip cleaned today. It's an important part of the healing process in order to prevent infection, but as you can tell from her face, she didn't love it. Thankfully her mom understands the process and importance and is keeping her on track to have a beautifully healed lip! The other good news is that Balki has been discharged from our ward! Since she lives far away and still needs regular care, she'll be staying in our guesthouse until she's all healed up.
Enala from Malawi on Today
Enala has spent the weekend recovering from her operation and it's not a fun time. Enala's frame is bulky and uncomfortable, but has a metal frame which will help to correct her leg. We encouraged some of the other patients with frames to encourage and help Enala as she adjusts. Please help us in prayer!
Daisy from Kenya on Today
It’s easy to take advantage of the fact that every day, you put on your shoes with ease and you walk to your car, your job, even just to your kitchen. For Daisy, that ease is a luxury. Because Daisy has a foot that is curved, it takes a bit more work to put on her shoes. Thankfully, Solomon was there to help Daisy put on her shoes. Pray that after her surgery, Daisy will find it easier to put on her shoes!
Allan from Kenya on Today
When Allan and Storyteller Elvis met this morning, Elvis spoke to him in their mother tongue and smiled. We’re not really sure some of what was said, but Elvis had fun with it! He also had a chance to make friends with Benson and Allan as Allan’s story was shared this morning. We know a little teasing happened again! Allan has a silly and joyful personality, so we figure he’s good for all the teasing! He’ll hopefully go for surgery tomorrow.
Beimnet from Ethiopia on Today
After having her frame turning for the day, we found Beimnet and our Limb Reconstructor Assistant, Bayu, playing and making different faces. She is doing wonderful so wonderful in fact that she'll be heading home today! She will continue her recovery from there and we will see her again in two weeks when she returns for her check-up. Please keep her in your prayers!
Degaga from Ethiopia on Today
Degaga's first surgery was a resounding success and here's a little look into what was done as the doctors worked on both his knee and foot today! He did a great job in the operation room and he is resting in the ward! Keep this young boy in your prayers for a speedy recovery!
Arjohn from the Philippines on Today
We make sure that our patients feel comfortable and at home during their stay with us. One of the ways we do this is by giving them admission kits, workbooks, and treats! When Arjohn was given his admission kit, he immediately got the comic pamphlet and read about Jesus! He was also visited by our anesthesiologist to instruct him and Sammy about some restrictions on his food and water intake as a preparation to ensure his safety for his surgery tomorrow. Please join us in prayer that he will be prepared physically, emotionally and spiritually as he goes down the OR!
Junior Mustafa Katumba from Uganda on Today
Evelyn says that has high expectations that she will leave CURE Uganda when Baby Junior is totally healed. She says she is comfortable here at CURE and loves the services that are given to the moms and their babies. “It is only in this hospital that I have seen nurses and doctors who pray with the patients”, Evelyn says. Baby Junior is awaiting surgery so please be praying for him.
Richard from Uganda on Today
Richard is still on antibiotics but is awaiting surgery. “This morning the doctors told me he will have surgery tomorrow. I am so happy that finally this is going to happen because I have been here at CURE Uganda for a long time now and would like to get done with the operation and go home. Mothers have come and gone but am still here”, Benna said. She says that she wasn't feel too well over the weekend, but is much better now and we thank God for that. Let us be praying for Richard’s surgery which is scheduled for tomorrow.
Gladys from Uganda on Today
“The wound now looks better. Mama you have three more days on antibiotics, and we shall let you go home”, Dr. Emma told Nancy this morning. Nancy said that her weekend was very busy. She attended devotions, did laundry, and chatted with her friends. She has noticed a significant improvement in Gladys’ health like Gladys isn't as irritable anymore and no longer has spiking fevers. Please continue praying for Gladys and her mother!
Jhon David from the Philippines on Today
While waiting for Nurse Ken to remove his casts, Jhon David was busy tinkering with the cutter and making some buzzing sounds while pretending to split his casts in half! We are pretty proud of Jhon David for how far he’s come in his treatment! He has had his final cast change today and will be given a schedule for his second surgery in the next couple of weeks!
Ibrahim from Niger on 3 days ago
Over the past few weeks, Ibrahim's confidence with his walker has skyrocketed and he's all over the place! Today we caught him in the chapel starting a dance party with a few of the friends he's made here at CURE Niger! https://youtu.be/nF6FobTLYa0
Dorcas from Kenya on 3 days ago
This is Dorcas’ stuffed animal! We grabbed Minnie Mouse from Dorcas’ bag and gave it to her. After some snuggles, we played a game of catch with Minnie Mouse and Minnie gave Dorcas some kisses and made her giggle. Dorcas just has one more day around CURE Kenya and then her and Minnie and Mama Dorcas will be on their way home!
Godson from Uganda on 3 days ago
Godson’s mom called us and let us know she couldn’t make it for the mobile clinic as she is in the hospital for a little bit. She assured us she's fine and Godson is doing well. She promised that she will bring him for our next CURE Uganda mobile clinic near their home. Please be praying for mama Godson as she gets better!- Updates13

Why I Support CURE
Chris is excited to join CURE for the same reason most of us are part of it: Seeing the Kingdom of God at work in kids lives. "Kids right now who can't walk, they're being carried, who can't go outside because their faces look different… they get to be kids again. Because of CURE… because of you and me and everyone else involved, kids will be kids again, and be able to walk and run.Chris Tomlin
