We spent our last day in Kyotera completing HIV testing and physicals for the orphans. The last time we came to visit Kyotera we held a sports camp, this time we poked them with needles and dug worms out of their feet. Not as friendly. You can tell a child you love them all you want but when to poke a needle in their finger they start to question that a little. We completed the medical day on schedule and had a little time to play at the end. Dustin packed about a hundred kites in his baggage so we pulled those out and had a fantastic time. They even forgot about the poking. It was great to just run around with them, untangling their kites and helping them fly. I’m sure there’s a metaphor in there somewhere. We just love these kids. It was so hard to say goodbye. Tears all around. Tomorrow we will complete physicals for the kids in Kitabazzi and help care for babies at a local baby orphanage. Looking forward to another day in Uganda. -Erica
