| My husband, Joe, also known as Papa Joe, is so wonderful with Karim. Tonight he let Karim cover him in newspapers and put his small cap on his head. Karim laughed hysterically. I love to see this side of my husband. He is a good man and a good temporary "father." God bless you, Joe. Love, Liz |

| My Friend, Abouna Antonio |
| Published: June 27, 2008, 4:51 pm |
| God gave me a beautiful gift in 2003 when I was given the gift of Father Antonio in my life. Sometimes he is funny and makes me laugh, like when he piles up cans, etc., at the dinner table, or when he massacres the "th" sound in the English language and declares that he cannot talk with his tongue between his teeth.

| Published: June 25, 2008, 2:00 pm |
| Karim saw his dermatologist, Dr. Van Ittersum, yesterday. He said Karim's feet are infected, which did not surprise me at all, judging by the looks of them and the odor. He is now on antibiotics. He is going to concentrate on making Karim feel better this year. His feet are so bad that Dr. Van Ittersum did not want to attempt removing the dead, |
