BUSH BUNNY BRENDA BLOG DATE: DECEMBER 22, 2018 DUCK DAYS A DAWNING! Little was accomplished by anyone in Balama this week due to over 5 inches of rain since Tuesday.

BUSH BUNNY BRENDA BLOG NOVEMBER 24, 2018 ALL VILLAGE FOOD/CLOTHING GIVE OUTS COMPLETED! Our efforts were complicated this year as our 16 year old, 6 ton truck, broke both front brackets that secure the front springs.

FROM “BUSH BUNNY BRENDA“DATE: NOVEMBER 6, 2018 NO AMPUTATION NEEDED, PTL!!!TWO Doctors in Pemba viewed Zito’s 8 different x‑rays and determined that the bone was NOT INFECTED, NOR WAS THE BONE MARROW DRIED UP!
