TB...negative!

Wow, Peter told us that he had to wait about 6 hours at the hospital where they could do the TB test. There is only one person qualified to run this test at the hospital and that person was, of course, out in the field and they were not sure when she would be back! Peter decided he would wait! He said, "JP was doing well. It was not difficult for me to keep him for such a long period you know he is very kind, he did not shout or cry, you know the sisters had given me a bag in which there was milk for JP so I could just give him, people were just wondering how JP is so kind!"

The test came back negative so JP is the picture of health! We also were surprised to hear how God has gone before us today! Peter learned that he needed to get some papers notarized before they would be accepted at the courts. He also heard that the office requires you to show up very early in the morning...by 7:00. He was unable to get there that early as he had to stop somewhere else to pay a tax on the documents...anyway...he arrived at the office to get the documents notarized and the receptionist said that he would need to come back next week....that the papers need to be dropped off on Monday morning ...early...and then it would take 7 days for them to be signed and ready. He asked the woman if she would please accept them today and not only did she say yes, but she brought them over to the notary who was signing the documents dropped off last Monday and she put it in the pile! So not only did she accept them but she got it signed the same day!!!! This just doesn't happen in Rwanda! This is a miracle! So Peter will go to the courts tomorrow to make an appointemnt to make the adoption complete and legal. This probably saved us weeks! YIPPEE...travel in September is looking more promising!
