Silvia, a Sweet Success Story By Kay Pribyl
Silvia is a lady in her 40’s who was abandoned by her husband, and lives alone in a very small one-room cement block building with her 16-yr.-old mentally retarded son. When we first met Silvia, she was all withered up after being bedridden for 5 years with arthritis. (As a child she had a strep infection that wasn’t cared for, and she developed a severe case of arthritis.) Silvia couldn’t sit up even long enough to bathe, her arms were twisted into her chest and she couldn’t extend them because of the pain. Now she is able to sit up for hours, crochets and also uses her arms to do things like wash her dishes that her son brings to the side of her bed. We had been asked by a friend to visit Silvia and have been doing so weekly for some time now. We take her and her son food, have prayed for her healing, as well as reading to her from devotional material. Now we are undertaking renovating Silvia's house and getting her sufficient furniture. We have also located a doctor who is experimenting with a treatment for arthritis and who will be donating treatment for Silvia. Kay Pribyl is the Project Manager of Corazons Unidos, a FCF Project in Morelia, Mexico. |
