Marlan came on the first day of the clinic carried by her father on his way to work. Her mother and little sister came with her each day. Dr. Brian was the doctor attending to her the needs of her foot. They diagnosed her swollen foot as a possible bug bite. Marlan was a brave little girl who came daily for treatment on her bite. Dr. Brian and with the assistance of many others scraped the bite, soaked her foot and many other procedures to try helping her. Paul, team member came in and stood by her side with words of encouragement to keep her mind off of the procedures. Marlan felt secure when Paul entered the room. The last day they took her into the Physical Therapy room where Brittany spoke to her gently in Spanish as they did their last procedure. The first day Orin carried her to her home but after the first day her Daddy came and carried her piggy back home each day. She looked at Orin to say my Daddy has me but I thank you for helping me as well. That big smile she had brought joy to everyone who helped Marlan. Rachel entertained the little sister while her big sister was with the doctors. This was a huge team effort in helping this little girl's foot to heal properly. Taylor's devotional one night shared out of Colossians 3:12-17, "Whatever we do we do it for Jesus." I feel like Marlan saw and felt the love of Jesus in each and everyone who touched her foot or spoke kind and compassionate words to her. Marlan saw Jesus that week.
