We Need Your Prayers for Kocho

 

"I want to be a doctor so I can treat sick people like me." — Kocho had a dream.   Earlier this year, we shared the story of a young boy named Kocho from Sudan who was suffering from terminal cancer. Today, we learned the sad news that Kocho passed away. Thanks to compassionate friends like you, Kocho received treatment to control his pain and lots of love so that his final days were filled with dignity and joy. "Kocho was brave and happy to the end. He finally decided that he had had enough and did not want any more chemo. To the end, he would rally and wanted to play. He was such a sweet child." —Dr. Clarke, Mother of Mercy Hospital, Sudan Kocho spent over a year living at the Mother of Mercy Hospital receiving chemo treatment. Here he is with some of the friends he made along the way. It is true, that even when there is nothing left to be done, there is always something that can be. Your gift helped ensure his final days were pain-free. Today, we invite you to share a prayer for young Kocho. May he find peace in the loving arms of God.
