So i havent blogged in a while

Sorry to all the people wanting to hear my thoughts on this trip. Typing is not a fun thing for me i type like one word a min. lol, but any who. Let me tell you whats going on in my head since my last blog. I am very grateful to be here I thank God he called me on this trip. I have seen it all from people dying at a "Hospital" and i put hospital in quotations because it was more like a mortuary then a hospital. Soon as you walk in you could smell death in the air. There were babies burnt from head to toe and had not been really treated for 5 or 6 days. There were people dying from Aids..Even little kids dying from Aids ... See More because out here 1 out of every 4 girls get raped by the age of 10 years old. This building looked horrible. Walls broken, windows broken. Rats, bugs, flies all over. There where 8 beds per room and the room was the size of about 2 American hospital rooms maybe smaller. There where no real doctors only kids who just got out of High school and they are just training and practicing on the dying patients like lab rats. If they cant pay they don't get treated or they get kicked out. There where kids being abandon because the parents couldn't afford the hospital. There was a girl who life or death hung in the balance because she couldn't afford to the surgery which was only $20 US dollars. And i can name about 20-30 stories like that. Thank God we where able to pay for her and others but there were so many and you cant save everyone. It was horrible. And this was the biggest hospital in this big city called Nakuru, Kenya. We went to the Bush Bush, which means went went to stay basically in a remote part of Sub-Saharan Africa in a place called East Pokot where there in no running water and you gotta use the bathroom in a hole in the floor and people like in real mud huts n their major "Town" is like 5 stores that are 10x worst then the worst convenient store u know but it was life changing and i ...felt so bad 4 the girls out there who get forced into marriage and forced 2 do female circumcisions. Then we went and visited 2 orphanages with some orphans who are beginning to put their life back together because some missionaries who moved to Africa doing God's work takes care of all the kids. Its great to see their joy now that they are in a safe place. Then we went to the dump and saw people suffering from Aid's who don't even have enough money to get to the "hospital" and get treated. Its a horrible feeling to see a mother dying, cant even get off her bed which is just a metal rod with a thin blanket on it. She cant get up to use the bathroom so she goes right on her bed. She has nobody to take care of her and her six kids. Her white blood cell count is at 14 when the normal person should be at about 1200. Her 6 kids sleep on chairs in a house as big as a bedroom and when we walked in they were eating popcorn seeds off the floor. It looks like soon their mom will pass and they will be left as orphans to fin for themselves by the way the oldest is 8 yrs old taking care of them all from3-8 yrs old. Its just sad but I thank God for allowing me to witness this so i can come back to the states and not just sit on the sidelines but help out by starting a non profit organization which will be called The Black Diamond Foundation and we are going to help orphanages and Schools and in the long run will build orphanages and schools and hospitals. So i will do my best to do what i can to make Kenya a better place. I have been touched threw this experience and i hope you now are touched by my words giving you a short picture of what it is like out here and hopefully you will partner with me to make Kenya a better place for those who live there. Please Contact me if you want to be apart of the Movement!!!
