Fany


With groups here, Marc is making it to the dump to feed hungry people more than once a week. Monday, when he arrived, a group gathered around and began to tell Marc about Fany being hurt over the weekend. Fany is one of the girls that has become our friend. She has a baby, but doesn't bring the baby to the dump. Marc buys milk for the baby every week. Fany is good at crowd control and some times helps serve or hand out water.


She was both hit by a car and stabbed three times.


Today after Marc finished feeding in the dump, he went to Fany's house. Fany's house is tin and wood and maybe 16 x 16, with fifteen living there. Wall-to-wall beds. Fany is in terrible shape and only has a 50/50 chance of living. Marc asked her what happened and she began to cry.


Fany works in the dump every day. Sifting garbage and trying to find a few recyclables to sell so that her family can eat. Others in the house work at whatever they can as well.


Marc helped with groceries for right now. He will get milk for the baby tomorrow.


Fany needs our prayers as she fights for her life.

MARC you are so good.
Praying for you and for all that you try to do to help mothers and the ones who are in such need...and i pray that this woman can be healed and live through these horrible injuries. Living in Honduras is so sad for some like fany. God has put Christians in her life for a very good reason. She needs them so badly.

I am so sorry to hear your friend is hurting so much. It sounds like she needs to be in the hospital...the good hospital. But cannot afford to go....

Please post update information on Fany. Many are praying for her multi-faceted healing, and we would be very interested to know how she is doing. Is she getting medical attention? We read the blog entry about health care options for the very poor. Are there options available for her, and are there ways we could help?
