Rosita

Rosita and Sisi came to live at Casa de Esperanza about a month ago. Rosita is deaf. She had perfect hearing until she was two years old. At that time, she had an extremely high fever and no one had the money to take her to the doctor.

A ministry called Manos Feliz or Happy Hands is coming here two times a month to teach her sign language. We are thankful for that. Karen can communicate quite well with her and she appears quite bright.

Today Marc and Dorian took her to the audiologist. The audiologist said even with hearing aids, she might not ever have adequate language skills. She is only eight. Marc has to take her back next week to have her ears cleaned. The audiologist wanted someone else to do that job so she would not be afraid of him. The week after that, Rosita will go back for a full audiology exam in the audiology booth.

We have to work with her and prepare her for testing. I believe in a God who can and does perform miracles. Please join me in prayer for little Rosita as she is tested.
