Sadly and annoyingly, Fungai's operation has been postponed for two weeks. Whats annoying is that when I paid last week and was given the time, they would have known it couldn't happen as the surgeon left town for three weeks, yet they ony told us after Fungai had travelled the 200km from her village and arrived at the hospital. Sr Rudo informs me this common, indeed expected, behaviour. Fungai was of course greatly disappointed but hardly surprised.

We will have to wait two weeks then. Fungai will returnto her village and ma and Sr Rudo are going to visit the surgeon in person to try and make sure it doesn't happen again.
