Last week at Partners in Hope I received word that a woman wanted to meet with me for “personal reasons.” As I was walking to meet with her, I was thinking about what problems she might have or what I might have missed. But her purpose was simple: she just came to give me a bag of dowe (fresh maize) to say “thank you” for the program to prevent cervical cancer. She had been tested about a month before, had received a good report and was so relieved! I was humbled by her making a special trip to show her appreciation.
