Dear Friends,
There is exciting news to share! Lorna has now been discharged from hospital! On Saturday, Lorna was given the OK to leave, with all in-patient bills settled - due to your generous and loving support - and on the condition that she visits a local hospital twice a day to ensure that any liquid is sucked from her lungs. She is now with a her Aunt on the outskirts of Nairobi and the local hospital is a specialist Women's hospital, just a short walk from the house.
Lorna has also started chemotherapy. She returns to Aga Khan Hospital next Saturday to have the doctors confirm that all is proceeding as planned. With the tracheal and stomach tubes, life is very different for Lorna, but she remains strong and takes each day as it comes.
You have been so generous and Lorna and Alastair are so grateful. Perhaps the critical moment has past, but Lorna still has a long walk back to full health, therefore they leave the fund open so that they can continue to cover costs as they arise.
The total cost at Aga Kan was about Ksh 2,100,000 - (approx. $21,000 or £15,000). Thank you for assisting in paying this bill and saving Lorna's life. With Sincere Appreciation, Lorna and Alastair
