My Two Great Christian Nurses in our Church

Who would have thought that in my travels in Lagos, Nigereria in 1978, the one day, Oyin Ajala would be in our church in Walnut Creek and would stop over a few times a week to check out my Catheter? Oyin studied in Philadelphia but now resides in Walnut Creek and works for Kaiser Hospital in San Francicsco and is an intructor of career nurses in nearby Antioch. Koyce has been a little nervous as my caregiver but Oyin has releaved all those fears by showing her how to clean the catheter and the lines that are done daily. We are so fortunate to have Oyin worshipping with us as well as another nurse, Gail Barbitta. Both of them are God-sents to help us during this procedure.
Gail was a former teacher at our Academy before she became a nurse. She is a great help as well in checking me out. In her spare time, she watches over her daugther Jennene who also has been diagnozed with cancer. Her web site is: http://dontwastemycancer.wordpress.com/. It is a great site and she has some good things on it. Some of you who went to Western in its El Ceritto days will remember Gail. She attended Grace Baptist in Richmond and now is a member of our church in Walnut Creek. Thank God for these ladies and their spiritual gifts.
