After some communication issues, Blessing is finally on her way to Harare to get prepped for her op. She will first need to be examined and to get a new quote (it won't hopefully be much more than the 600usd previously estimated). We can then pay and book it.

As reported last time, Fungai's op was postponed for two weeks and we're hoping to nail down a date for Blessing's.

Ad we've extended the outreach to pay for a third op (that of Spiwe), and all donations so far have come from overseas, we wanted to do something in Harare. When thinking of a theme for a fund-raising evening, I could think of nothing else other than a Game of Thrones fancy dress or a scrabble tournament - I opted for the scrabble nite. I know there's quite a few closet scrabble geeks in Harare so i'm hoping this will bring them out and give us an opportunity to raise public awareness about fistulas as well as raise money for Spiwe's op.
