Rasheeda, who belongs to a poor Christian family, lives near RAM. She is diabetic and suffers from hypertension. Her husband brought her to our medical clinic. She could not walk or stand properly because of many wounds on her feet.
Our medical staff quickly determined that she had very high blood pressure and blood sugar level. Our staff was surprised to know that she is not taking medicines to regulate either. Our doctor treated her, and praise God that her blood pressure and blood sugar are now controlled, and she can stand on her feet. She receives her medication from the medical center on a monthly basis.
She thinks the Lord has given her another life. She is thankful to RAM and our partner World Compassion Fellowship for healing her wounds and soul.
