Day 1278. Yesterday we stayed home, except for Sammy who had physiotherapy in the afternoon. and that's also the only picture. I gave lessons in the morning, afternoon and evening; twice a week I teach from 8 to 10 pm. Today Sammy also had therapy, speech therapy. Normally I go there with him, but today I had a 11 am lesson to teach, and so Randy had to go with him.

Day 1276. I did not set an alarm, as Emmy is a reliable alarm clock, always being the first one up and first waking his brother up, and then later his sister who doesn't wake up as easily. They then constantly come to me wanting something, whether it's my phone to watch something or for me to open a squeezie for them or something else.

This is Salimata. She has three children and lives in Sebela. Her husband is in Algeria, but it's  been 9 months since she last heard from him. She hadn't eaten in 2.5 days, when we gave her rice. She said, "This rice saves our lives."
