Day 4 in Uganda

I have now moved to Kampala, the capital city of Uganda. It is home to around 2 million people, almost as many motorbikes, and one little girl named Hope.

Hope was found abandoned in a parking garage as an infant. Brought to the Watoto centre for premature and severely malnourished babies, she made a full recovery and is now a beautiful 3 1/2 year old girl with a bright future.

Yesterday I met a 2 year old blind girl who was tossed down a latrine (pit toilet) and left for dead. She was also rescued by Watoto - unfortunately, there are many such stories, but it is comforting to know that many are receiving such great care.
