Burned Dominican Children: Angel and Jose Update




Dear friends and family,

I contacted our partners in Puerto Plata, and asked for an update on the boys, Angel and Jose.

The report was that they are healing and looking better every week. Their next treatment will be on Monday. We are considering several options to help the family as the children do not attend school and their widower father is forced to work jobs that take him away from his children. This is a problem. A father should be with his children as much as possible.

One of the ideas was to set him up in some sort of business such as motorcycle taxi. If you have any ideas, please forward them to me at: mattenleys@mercyleague.org
