Nursing thoughts (for those interested)...

I was very impressed with Hope Village (we visited several orphanages). It provides not only care for orphans, but also hospice for women, counseling, and assistance for single mothers with special-needs children. The kids and adults who receive from Hope Village also take part in keeping it running. There were several mothers living there (or in the programs provided) with HIV or AIDS who had their kids well adjusted for when these mothers can no longer care for thier children. Hope is always taking on a new project to make the facilities better; however, there is very little money and always need for more help!
