When we were in Australia for Arnold's work I met a little girl with stent from brain to stomach. Her mother was a maid at our hotel. The little girl who lived with her uncle would spend the days with me and we became friends. When I returned to the states I bought her many clothes I sent with AJ when he returned to finish his project.
The area we stayed in had seen no rain for 4 years. Landscapes were so unusual, trees grew along the ground instead of up. During the months I lived there I also made many friends among the people of the small village of Dongra and became a part of their community life.
