BIG NEWS! I've created a PayPal account for the Abigail/Nadia clinic, and if you just look thataway, ------------------------------------------------------------>
you will find a convenient link! I have often had kind people ask, "How can I donate?" and it has come to my attention that there are easier and more secure ways than sending a check in the mail. So, here it is!

Also, more knowledgeable people than myself have offered to research how to make the Abigail/Nadia Clinic a tax-deductible organization. I am very excited about this possibility!

Cape Coast is buzzing today despite the dusty hazy weather...Ghana goes up against Morocco in the African Cup of Nations tonight, a big game! Every street stall is selling Ghana flags, belts, hats, noisemakers, anything you can think of; you can't look anywhere without seeing red, gold and green. This reminds me of Summer 2006 during the World Cup, when I was lucky enough to be in Ghana as they maneuvered through the tournament. After defeating the U.S. and Czech Republic among others, they finally ceded to Italy. The night of that game, Ghanaians still celebrated the success they'd made with dancing and parades through the streets. Truly, I've never seen a people with as much spirit as the Ghanaians have. This tournament has the added excitement (and pressure) of being on home turf, and it is definitely felt.
