Osmond goes home

Tomorrow, Osmond the 12 year old boy who had the cleft lip and palate, goes home. His feeding tube is out and is eating well. He is smiling and so happy to look normal. I took care of him this past week and every day I saw improvement in the way he talked and ate. He has enjoyed going outside on deck to play on the swings and to watch the other ships come in. It has been a blessing to take care of Osmond as he recovered. We pray that his shyness will turn into confidence as he returns home a new man.
