The Miracle Child
Hardly a month after the birth of baby Nanette, we moved as a family to stay in Mbabane Swaziland.

We lived in Mbabane. When Nanette was 3 months old, she was attacked by cholera. This disease had been killing children left, right and centre.

I remember, I and Precious were surrounded by nurses in Mbabane Government Hospital, telling us that ; Nanette will not live to see the next day.

Precious was crying like a small baby, and I was holding Nanette. I told Precious one sentence. “Baby, Lift up your eyes to the hills; that’s where our help comes from.”

I was shivering while holding the little helpless Nanette. One Doctor called us to his office. He gave us salt and sugar mixture and warned us not to sleep, but to feed the baby until morning.

We left. On arrival we started spoon feeding Nanette as the Doctor have said. We sang praises to God and prayed. No one slept or dozed that night.

Towards morning, Nanette looked much better. Early in the morning we took her to hospital and the Doctor assured us that she was okay. He gave us medicine. Since then, Nanette has never been sick.

Thank you Jesus. Nanette is growing.
