A Look Inside

Two of our board members, Anne-Marie and Charles Mueller, M.D., recently returned from a trip to Liberia.  While there, they traveled to Gbarnga to visit the Phebe Rehab Center.  There are no fistula survivors there at this time, but more women and girls are expected in early November, as they are scheduled for fistula repair surgery. 
 
Our goal is to prevent fistula from happening by having a maternity waiting home, House of Hope and Dignity, in rural Liberia.  From the report that Anne-Marie provided, we are getting closer to that goal!  She provided the following update on the progress:

  • The walls are smooth
  • The door frames are roughed in
  • They are plastering around the windows.
  • The electrical conduit is in place and breaker boxes are mounted
  • Plumbing is in place, with water supply lines and drains
  • The laundry room has a floor sink with drain in place as well as a room drain for any washer overflows.
 
She shared some fabulous pictures, giving me my first look inside.  I thought you might want to take a look as well.  Enjoy!
