Francis & Joel traveled to Kampala and were expecting that Joel would undergo surgery today.  In the video here, they are feeling hopeful that the surgery would happen today. However, Joel has had a cough and the doctors told them they could not operate on him due to his illness.  So, Francis & Joel are scheduled to return for surgery on November 6.  They are of course disappointed that the surgery could not happen today but remain grateful that the surgery will be possible.  We'll keep you updated on the court case (October 22) regarding Joel's attack.

Thank you to everyone who donated to make these trips from their village to the capital of Kampala possible!  Joel's treatment would not be possible without you!
