Yesterday we went back to Teleton. Monica, Doris and I left here at 5:15 and went to get Sandra. We arrived at Teleton just a few minutes before 6:30, our appointed time. There was a lot of waiting.
At 7:30 someone came and talked to the whole group of waiting people, explaining procedures. Around 8:15, another person came out and began to hand numbers to those waiting. Sandra got numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5.
Sandra got in and got appointment books for all four of the girls. Then we moved to another area and waited in line to see the social worker. Before Sandra was through with the social worker, someone told her Monica and Doris could start class. I took the girls and got them in class for an hour. I was thankful for the book that was in my backpack.
We finally, left Teleton at 11:30, five hours after arriving. We were exhausted. Monica and Doris were good, really good for that long of time. Again, we went armed with snacks and water.
Though we were exhausted and ready to be home, we left with Doris and Monica enrolled in classes every Monday afternoon. Monica, Doris and Maryuri have future appointment. Sandra will be taking classes on some Mondays and some Tuesdays.
This has been a long process. We are thankful that the girls are finally going to be in classes. And we are thankful for Sandra who is going to the adult classes so we can all better help the kids with some education.

Bless you for your early morning drives witht the children! What a way to start the day hearing the rooster crowing as you drive down the mountain!
Teleton sounds like a wonderful place. I'm so glad that it's close enough for the children to go to classes. Just another way God's hand has provided for these precious children of His!
Blessings and hugs,
Donna
