Update on Diescor

Keep those prayers going for Diescor Kirenga, one of the young boys who joined the Urukundo family in 2007. Prayers are so needed and our source of strength. Diescor, who is a medical student, was admitted in critical condition to King Faisal Hospital in Kigali City after he collapsed on Dec. 4. On Dec. 29, he left the hospital for further medical treatment in the USA.
His progress has been phenomenal. Prayers have been answered.

Saturday Dec. 28 was our final visit to the hospital in Kigali to see Diescor before he left the country. Lucky and Claude wanted to visit their big brother and so accompanied me to Kigali and the hospital. The visit was good for them and for Diescor. Love is the most important ingredient in a good life. The kids at Urukundo love Diescor. He doctored their bruised knees, cuts and scrapes even before he started medical school.

On my visit with Diescor on the day before Christmas, he showed recognition with his eyes and facial expressions. He smiled a lot and laughed but not out loud. He said “yego,” which is “yes” in the Rwandese language. He could understand all conversation and responded. The improvement is encouraging. The greatest gift to me was when he hugged me strongly with his left arm.
