Roberta Tello Update

Sara and Rusty met with Yesenia Montes earlier today and received an update on Roberta Tello. Roberta’s left leg was amputated earlier this week. Yesenia reports that Roberta is in good spirits despite the trauma that she has experienced over the past couple of weeks. After a few more days in the hospital’s intensive care unit and additional recovery time, Roberta will begin physical therapy. Sara and Rusty hope to schedule a time to visit Roberta this weekend, but visiting hours for intensive care patients are very limited.

Radio Amauta held a fundraiser for Roberta two weeks ago and raised S./5,000 (approximately US$1,800) for Roberta’s medical expenses.

Please continue to keep our dear sister in your thoughts and prayers. As I hear more news, I will pass it along.

Yesenia sends hugs to all!
