Denise Nelson - Medical Mission Trip

Denise Nelson is going to the Dominican Republic on a Medical mission trip from April 27-May 4. When she returns on May 4, she is bringing a child (Miguelito) and his mother (Dileny) back with her. Miguelito Baez is an 8 year old boy that has been granted a Medical Visa in order that Dr. Hoover from CMC-Northeast can operate. Miguelito was born with Hirschsrpung's disease or Congenital Megacolon. He has undergone 10 surgeries and cannot be helped in his own country. An organization from Texas helped with paperwork, but will no longer be involved in case once child arrives in US territory. The surgery date will be scheduled after Dr. Hoover sees him. Please cover Miguelito in prayer for traveling mercies and that every detail of his health care and surgery goes well so that he can experience complete healing. Please pray for God's blessings on Dr. Hoover for agreeing to do the surgery for free, and on Denise and her family as they open their home to this child and his Mom. If you would like more information about this child's needs, please call Denise C. Nelson at 704 597-1397 or email DCN4God@aol.com. Some needs are: A good pair of shoes, clothes and underwear (she will have sizes after he arrives), visit him at the hospital, and money for food. Miguelito comes from the mountains of the Dominican Republic and has never left the island.
