Tuesday    

Praise God, Marco continues to get better and is back to normal as far as being sick. Of course the malnutrition takes much longer before effects can be seen. The doctor said at least 6 month of good nutrition and care before the damage from the malnutrition can be repaired. He appears to be a normal active toddler at this point. His mom is asking for him to come home. The difficult part is once he goes home back with poor nutrition he will not continue to thrive. We need a long term plan for these kids. We do what we can to help the situation when they are in crisis but a long term plan of good nutrition and proper care is essential.
