I made a little Walgreen's run today... to kick off packing/purchasing things for our trip. I think I can almost check off everything in the medicine category now (except for 3 more prescriptions we need filled - scabies, yellow fever and "digestion" meds and this is after getting our meds for hep A, tetanus, typhoid & malaria). Not sure if the Wal-phed is going to Ethiopia... but did need it today since I have come down with an icky cold.
Lately, we have gotten several requests from our friends and family about donations that the Ethiopian children may need. So if you would like to "help us pack our suitcase" with some donated items, I have listed the care center requests below. Many of the items listed are for AHOPE, which is an organization in Ethiopia that provides care for more medically involved children. Please let us know if you are interested in donating and we will make sure it gets to those in need.
