Another morning at the hospital has come to an end and this time I can't help but feeling very sad. My little Christina's mom showed up today to pick her up so she went home and that will probably be the last time I see her before I leave as well. As much as I'm glad that she's not having to sit in the hospital anymore, I don't know what her home situation is like so I don't know if it's a good thing or not. Most likely she is very poor because she's definitely from a gypsy village and her mom did not look healthy at all. I have grown so attatched to her over the past week that it's very hard for me to see her go. I can't believe how you can fall in love with this little person in such a short amount of time. It will be hard going back tomorrow and not seeing her face.
But on to less depressing subjects! Our time is flying by and we are almost done at the hospital! Tomorrow we'll be there for the morning, then we're off to Dracula's castle in the afternoon and then we're taking a weekend trip to Navadar, where Stef lived before, to visit some old friends. Brasov is a very rich and touristy city compared to the rest of Romania so to see the real authentic Romania will be very interesting to experience. Then Monday we'll work a full day as our last day in the hospital and then tuesday morning we're off! I'm remembering my 2 weeks on other missions trips and how they felt so long. This has gone by so quickly, 2 weeks is such a short amount of time. It would be quite different if I was here for a longer period of time. As much as I'd love to, I don't know if I could handle it...
I would love to post some pictures on here of the babies but the page is all in Romanian so I have no idea how to do that. I'll have to wait until I get home I guess.
Well I'll talk to you all very soon! Hope life in your part of the world is going well. I love you all,
Deanne

Hey Deanne,
I can't imagine how hard it is to see those kids leave and not know if the home there going to will keep them well or healthy. But remember you are planting seeds of Christ's love while you are there, and that is one of the most precious life giving gifts you can give. Love ya! I'm coming to Abbotsford for the year as a TREK intern. So we can hang out and you can share with me in person if you want.
